President Emmanuel Macron responded to the incident by calling on schools to hold a “discussion hour” on racism and anti-Semitism.
A powerful scandal erupted in France over the rape of a 12-year-old Jewish girl, in which two teenagers were accused. This happened against the backdrop of rising anti-Semitism in France at the outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas. This was reported by AP news agency.
A girl reported rape in the town of Courbevoie on Saturday, June 15, after which three boys aged 12-13 years were detained. They were charged on Tuesday, June 18, with several preliminary charges, including aggravated gang rape of a minor under 15 years of age, violence and public insult on religious grounds, threats to kill, attempted extortion and unlawfully recording or broadcasting sexually explicit images. .
Prosecutors have not indicated the girl’s religion or released her identity. French media and the city’s mayor called it an anti-Semitic attack and called the girl Jewish. Later, Jewish lawyer and leader Eli Corchia said the girl was Jewish and mentioned Palestine during the attack.
The two men are in custody pending the completion of the investigation, the prosecutor’s office said. A third man was identified as a witness to a possible rape.
French President Emmanuel Macron responded to this scandal by asking schools to hold a “discussion hour” this week on the topic of racism and anti-Semitism, Reuters reports.
As we already wrote, two illegal immigrants were detained in Paris at the request of “people from Russia” they painted Stars of David on houses – a symbol of the Jewish religion and the state of Israel.
