The former municipal of Aigle, accused in particular of fraud, should he end up behind bars? This is the whole issue of this second day of trial before the Correctional Court of Eastern Vaud, this Wednesday in Vevey. For prosecutor Anton Rüsch, who requested a heavy sentence of 5 years in prison, there is no doubt. “His guilt is overwhelming,” he said. For seven years, he went from one fraud to another. In the eyes of the Public Prosecutor, the case is of an unprecedented scale, with 13 injured parties (11 individuals and two companies), for a total loss of nearly 3 million francs.
