Disneyland Paris has been fined 225,000 euros for manslaughter. The ruling follows ten years after the death of a technician during maintenance on Phantom Manor. The public prosecutor's office confirmed this on Wednesday following reports by 'Le Parisien'.
A 45-year-old employee was electrocuted on 2 April 2016 by intervening on the attraction of the haunted Manor. Euro Disney was sentenced by the Meaux Correctional Court to a fine of 225,000 euros.
"This judgment will not bring back our colleague Olivier, who died in emergency intervention on an attraction, but it is hoped that he will make the management aware that she is taking risks to her employees, with chronic understaffed maintenance teams," reacted the secretary general of the union UNSA Disneyland Paris.
