"All animals are equals, but some animals are more equal than others" (G. Orwell - "Animal Farm")

To date Max Rombi - Arkopharma's ex-CEO and founder and current chairman of the supervisory board - of which he has ensured the transfer of 5,992,696 shares in february 2005 to its family holding Imarko - is still pursued for "unintentional" homicides and injuries, misleading advertising and frauds. He's already exploited a juridic void by importing herbs not traditionally used in french drugs preparations and which effects were known in their country of origin and which are not even traditionally used for the purpose of weight-loss as advertised by Arkopharma for their asiatitrat pills. As if this wasn't enough, the sentences pronounced by the french correctional courts are ridiculously "light" considering the gravity of the offences. And as a cherry on top of the cake, Max Rombi and Arkopharma still denying the facts and not assuming their responsabilities and have appealed the correctional courts sentences. He's still participating in conferences and states (...)people must always be educated so they can handle their health(...). Indeed - with its company Arkopharma and its asiatitrat - that is an amazing example of philantropy Max Rombi gives us all!
