A 15-year-old boy involved in the gang-rape of a 12-year-old Jewish girl in a Paris suburb has had his sentence reduced from nine to seven years by an appeals court, which also imposed an educational measure. The attack, which took place in June 2024, involved antisemitic insults and threats, with the girl being beaten, sexually assaulted, and blackmailed by three teenage boys. The case shocked France, prompting protests and widespread condemnation from politicians and the public. The incident occurred amid a sharp rise in antisemitic acts in France, with Jewish groups noting an increase in attacks following recent international events.
