"After some 60 students in the student cafeteria had contracted food poisoning from fish, the Students' Association of Limoges protested against the quality of the food and the unfavourable conditions in the student restaurant. The Students Association pointed out that students complain about the bad food daily and found out that the food supplies were being stored impractically in a damp place. At this, the Office of the District Attorney of Limoges decided to begin preliminary proceedings. The police made tests of the food which had been used in preparation of the meal; however, the fish, which the students thought to be the cause of the poisoning, could not be investigated, since the leftovers had already been thrown into the garbage palls before the poisoning had become evident."
