SANOFI HAVE MORE PROTESTS IN PARIS, FRANCE

Thursday, 1st July

We demonstrated once more in front of the offices of Sanofi-Aventis. The well-known pharmaceutical lab is a client of Huntingdon Life Sciences, toxicology centre which slaughters 500 animals every day of the week. We reminded Sanofi that, because of their links with HLS, all the employees were guilty of the abuse of these animals (beaten monkeys and dogs, shaken, humiliated).

The workers must have never had the courage to watch the videos filmed secretly inside this centre of torture. If the images are too hard to see, there are a lot of testimonies of former-employees and of infiltrated reporters. We can discover that on the one hand the animals have miserable lives (bad treatment, cages hosed down with the dogs still inside the cages, lack of care and anaesthesia) and on the other hand HLS doesn’t respect protocols and falsifies results of tests at the expense of their clients…

We’ll never give up this international campaign because the thought of
the animals inside HLS is enough to make us seethe with anger.
