The trial of the assassination of Samuel Paty
He is one of the most anticipated people at this hearing. This Tuesday morning, Zohra*, born in May 2007 in Yvelines, must be heard by the Paris Special Assize Court at the trial for the assassination of Samuel Paty.
This former student of the Bois d'Aulne college is at the origin of the controversy over the course given in October 2020 by the professor of history geography on freedom of expression and freedom of the press during which he had shown caricatures of the prophet Mohammed taken from the newspaper Charlie Hebdo.
Excluded from class that day
Zohra, 13 years old, was excluded for indiscipline on the day of class. However, she falsely claimed in front of her father to have attended this lesson, maintaining that Samuel Paty had asked the Muslim students to report themselves and leave the class.
Minute by minute
The schoolgirl's father, Brahim Chnina, and Islamist activist Abdelhakim Sefrioui then launched a cyberharassment campaign on social networks and published videos targeting the teacher. They are received by the principal of the college.
Brahim Chnina files a complaint against Samuel Paty for disseminating pornographic images. And he spoke by telephone with the assassin Abdoullakh Anzorov, informed of the controversy targeting the teacher via one of his videos.
On October 13, 2020, Samuel Paty filed a defamation complaint in return. Three days later, on October 16, 2020, he was assassinated near the college where he taught.
