Four minor high school students mutilated, families demand truth

Original: Quatre lycéens mineurs mutilés. Des enquêtes ouvertes, des familles qui réclament la vérité — et un ministre qui refuse

Four underage high school students have been seriously injured, reportedly mutilated, in incidents linked to policing of youth protests in France. Investigations have been opened, and the families are demanding the full truth about what happened. Criticism is mounting against a government minister who refuses to question the use of the weapons deployed against young demonstrators, with critics accusing the state of defending its methods instead of protecting children.

Why now: Anger over the injuries to minors and the government's refusal to reconsider crowd-control weapons is fuelling public debate.
