PARIS: A recall of potentially contaminated infant milk formula in some 60 countries has taken a legal turn in France after a watchdog and eight families filed a lawsuit accusing manufacturers and the government of acting too slowly. Eight French families, who said their babies suffered severe digestive problems after drinking formula named in the recall, have joined a lawsuit filed by Foodwatch, which AFP has seen. The complaint, while not naming the manufacturers or government agencies, calls for a legal investigation.

A consumer watchdog and eight families say manufacturers and authorities reacted too slowly after contaminated baby formula was pulled from shelves in more than 60 countries.
