(France 2)
The principal of the Maurice-Ravel high school in Paris (Île-de-France) resigned after receiving death threats. He had an altercation in February with a student who refused to remove her veil. The young girl had filed a complaint which was dismissed.
For the principal of the Maurice-Ravel high school in Paris, the situation was becoming unbearable. For a month, the head of the establishment had received death threats via social networks. On February 28, an altercation broke out with a student refusing to remove her veil. The young woman claims to have received a blow. She had filed a complaint for violence, which has since been closed. The principal asked for early retirement.
Conflicting versions have since circulated in the establishment. “Everyone talked about the death threats, not to mention what had happened to the student. Although she is the first victim“, assures a high school student.
The principal received by Gabriel Attal
“The principal did not hit a student, he simply asked a BTS student who was crossing the room to remove her veil“, said a teacher. On Wednesday March 27, Prime Minister Gabriel Attal received the principal to show his support. Two individuals who had made death threats online were arrested. One of them will be judged on April 23.
