Three weeks after the attack on young Samara by a group of young people in a college in Montpellier, the police indicted two new minors for attempted homicide.
The investigation continues after the beating of Samara, a schoolgirl at the Arthur Rimbaud establishment in Montpellier, at the beginning of April. Two minors who were also students at this Hérault college were indicted this Wednesday, April 24 according to The Parisianwhich brings the number of young people prosecuted in this case to five.
After opening an investigation into attempted murder of a minor under 15, the police quickly placed three young people in police custody. The teenage rival from Samara as well as two other students aged 14 and 15 admitted to having hit the victim. These two new arrests are therefore added to the three previous ones and support the story of Samara’s mother, who had declared to Free Middaythat the principal of the establishment where her daughter was educated had contacted her to warn her “that a crowd of young people had formed at the exit” to wait for her daughter.
An attack against a background of harassment
As a reminder, young Samara had been attacked by classmates at her establishment. Under the successive blows, the teenager collapsed before being treated by emergency services and taken to hospital. The girl was in a coma for several days before she was able to return home. His health has since improved but remains fragile. While awaiting the court decision, Samara is continuing her schooling at home, with the agreement of the management and teaching staff of her school.
