The City of Geneva admits it has been duped after the Church of Scientology was able to set up a stand at last weekend’s Fete de la Musique in the Parc des Bastions.
The stand was for the ‘Citizens Commission for Human Rights’ – which is a front for Scientology.

The City says it will not be fooled again.
