The former mayor (cdH) of Neufchâteau, Dimitri Fourny, saw his sentence reduced by the Mons Court of Appeal, but was sentenced to five years of ineligibility for electoral fraud.

The Hainaut Court of Appeal sentenced the former mayor of Neufchâteau this Wednesday morning Dimitri Fourny to a penalty of six months suspended sentence for three years and a fine of 8,000 eurosas well as a ineligibility for five years.

He was recognized guilty of forgery and use of six false powers of attorney carried out during the campaign for the 2018 municipal elections, won by his list by sixteen votes.

Justice considered that Dimitri Fourny had deliberately flouted the law by giving relatives, on the morning of the election, proxies to launch a hunt for votes in the Le Clos des Seigneurs retirement homewhere he knew that potential voters were in a weak state.
