Jean-Claude Mas, 76, the founder of Poly Implant Prothese (PIP), was on Monday given a four-year prison sentence.
His company was manufacturer of defective breast implants that caused a health scare across Europe and South America.
The court also upheld the 2013 trial’s order that Mas pay 75,000 euros ($86,000) and be banned for life from working in medical services or running a company. Mas also faces two other pending legal cases, one for involuntary manslaughter, the implants were suspected in several deaths from systemic toxicity and another linked to the financial implications of the scandal.
