A 14-year-old student was brought before the public prosecutor’s office in Toulouse on Saturday. The young Syrian is charged with sharing beheading videos with classmates at his school in Toulouse.
The events date back to May 30 of this year. A young middle school student, born in Syria in 2009, had received a video via Instagram messenger showing a beheading with a knife. The latter then spread it to some classmates of his collège in Toulouse, according to our information, confirming revelations by the newspaper “La Dépêche”. (…)
A secondary school pupil finally confided to his mother that one of his classmates had forced him to look at footage of beheadings and then threatened him to re-enact this horror scene on his family. The parents of the 15-year-old high school student then filed a complaint, which led to the arrest of the suspected youth. He admitted to having distributed the videos, but denied any threats against the alleged victim and his family. (…) Le Parisien
