Good riddance...on behalf of all the victims, their partners and families.
The boss of a French company which distributed defective breast implants around the world has been sentenced to four years in prison for fraud.
Jean-Claude Mas, the founder of the PIP company, was also fined 75,000 euros (£63,000) by a court in Marseille.
He will remain at liberty until a French court hears an appeal lodged by his lawyer.
PIP's sale of faulty implants caused a global health scare which affected about 300,000 women in 65 countries.
