    2016-07-09

    Par les soins de ce dernier, ils obtinrent une autorisation de saisie conservatoire et entreprirent son exécution en faisant procéder à une saisie conservatoire auprès de différentes banques, dont la « BICEC » qui détenait les fonds que la Caisse Autonome d’Amortissement y avait placés pour les reverser aux ex-employés.
