Travolta leaves France on Scientology's account
Actor afraid of possible interrogation
Paris, France
Paris (dpa). American film actor John Travolta, who is a member of the
Scientology Organization, has unexpectedly ended his visit to France and
has gone back to Los Angeles on Wednesday in a private aircraft. This was
reported by the French paper "Le Parisien" on Thursday.
While Travolta, according to the official statement, had to go back
because of film work in the USA, those in his inner circle are saying that
the actor made a premature departure due to the trial against seven
Scientology adherents in Marseille. He was afraid of being interrogated by
the Justice Ministry in the matter.
The Scientology members are standing before the court in Marseille on
charges of fraud. Travolta first arrived in Paris on Monday to advertise
for the new film "Defenseless - The General's Daughter." [not sure of
English title - trans.] The film runs in France the middle of next week,
in Germany the opening is planned for November 18. Several scheduled
interviews were cancelled after Travolta's departure on Wednesday.

[Note: The Scientology® organization has at best estimate approximately
45,000 to 50,000 followers world wide -- contrary to the 8 million figure
that the organization has been claiming for the past few years or so.
While that number continues to drop (thanks in part to the Internet) few
of the remaining followers are even aware of the unending series of police
raids, indictments, and prison terms their leaders and fellow cultists are
subjected to routinely. Few are allowed to know about their organization's
criminal history, or its current racketeering activities. Even fewer of
the cult's remaining followers are privy to their messiah's written
policies which dictates the criminal behavior that keeps getting their
organization raided (see Xenu.NET for
suitable references of Scientology policy) Scientology management
is the problem, not the thousands of honest believers who are good,
honest citizens; themselves victims of Scientology - flr]
