A row in the mayor's office

The mayor declined to comment on this information.

Complaints come from municipal agents who are still active or who have left their post.

One of them was placed on sick leave and produced elements that could be assimilated to moral harassment from the elected official, with whom he had a heated argument in his office.

Loïc Audo, a municipal councilor who left the majority group, testified that he “met agents on sick leave, in burnout.

Entire families are suffering.

I can't hide my face."
