Death threats against Bastien Vivès: trial postponed to June. Five people are being prosecuted for insults and threats against the author of comic strips.
He is targeted by an investigation for the distribution of child pornography images. In the run-up to the Angoulême international comics festival, which takes place every year at the end of January, an exhibition dedicated to the cartoonist had sparked controversy due to several works by Bastiens accused of promoting pedophilia. The hearing will be held on June 13, said the president of the Paris criminal court.
