PARIS, Jan 30 (Reuters) - French nursing care homes company Orpea, which has been hit by charges of malpractice at its homes, said on Monday it had resumed talks with creditors and asked for trading in its shares and bonds to be suspended, pending further information.

"The company announces that the discussions between the company, a group of French third-party investors led by the Caisse des Depots et Consignations (CDC) and a group of unsecured financial creditors holding approximately 50% of the company’s 3.8 billion euros ($4.1 billion) of unsecured debt have resumed," it said in a statement.
