Paris - A French government report has described the Church of Scientology as a dangerous organisation that "threatens public order" and "human dignity" and has called for its dissolution.

The 60-page report described the US-based group as a "totalitarian" sect that keeps files containing personal information about its members. The report also described the Order of the Solar Temple as a dangerous organisation which should be dissolved. Seventy-four members of the sect have died in presumed collective suicides since 1994.
