15-year-old Shamseddine died after being beaten outside his college in Viry-Châtillon, in Essonne. Reactions are emerging from the political class, which does not hide its emotion.
“He could be our brother, our son, our comrade. Faced with this barbaric crime and violence, our society will not bend. The perpetrators will be found and punished,” says government spokesperson Prisca Thévenot. The death comes three days after a teenage girl from Montpellier, Samara, was violently molested, also in front of her school.
