In this context, an administrative formality was completed at the end of 2014: the interruption of the statute of limitations through a letter signed by Le Temps (a nota bene letter that does not represent an admission of guilt). Problem: unlike Le Temps, Swiss television and its former journalist refused to fulfil this purely administrative formality.
