Visibly shocked by the announcement, on the bench in the courtroom, Shein’s French spokesman Quentin Ruffat rubbed his hands: enough to predict a favorable outcome for the Asian platform in this legal procedure.
“The Kingdom has indicated that it will not support requests to block government sites. This is a very important point. agreed Me Kami Haeri, Shein’s other lawyer. Before the judge, he regretted it “Society is (heated) to death by this legal encounter”, the results of which are now scheduled for early December.
