Overview
- More than 2,000 people joined a march in Mitry-Mory to honor 17-year-old Camélia, with her family urging students and parents to speak out about harassment.
- Two judicial investigations are underway in Camélia’s case, including one specifically into harassment leading to suicide, alongside an administrative review now in progress.
- The head of the Mitry-Mory lycée has stepped back from duties during the inquiries as the Meaux prosecutor calls for caution in publicly accusing individuals.
- In the Pyrénées-Orientales, the Perpignan prosecutor said the 12-year-old’s suicide could be linked to harassment based on a note, while the academy reported no confirmation at this stage and opened a listening cell at Collège Pierre Fouché.
- Education Minister Édouard Geffray said he has no current evidence of school harassment in the 12-year-old’s case and noted a referral to the prosecutor for suspected intrafamilial factors, adding he will act based on the administrative report.
