Stabbed last year, a teenager from Gard will find his alleged attacker in the same high school this year. A situation that worries the victim's family as the trial for attempted homicide is to take place in 2025.

The facts date back to June 23, 2023, as reported The free core. A teenager, then aged 14, was stabbed in his ex-girlfriend's house by another young man. Severely wounded in the chest and thigh, the victim was flown to Marseille. The alleged attacker, aged 15 at the time of the events, was arrested and placed under judicial supervision. The trial, for attempted murder, is to take place in 2025.

But at the beginning of the school year, it is a case within a case that fuels the debates, at the high school Jean-Vilar in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon (Gard). Because the victim, still in college last year and now in second grade, will find her alleged attacker (first grade student) in the same establishment. Which is the one in their sector. And in this particular case, justice found nothing wrong with this promiscuity.

Enough to worry the parents of the stabbed teenager. Recently, for the regional daily, the victim's mother expressed her dismay, and believes that the academy has “turned its back” on her son, who is “afraid” not to attend classes.

Meeting with families

“The attacker is banned from entering Villeneuve-lès-Avignon (he lives in another municipality, NDLR), but the removal measure does not refer to his education,” emphasizes Christophe Mauny, academic director of the national Educational Services. And he added: “from a legal point of view, nothing prevents these two young people from being enrolled in the same institution. further decisions will be made.”

In turn, France 3 Occitania states that a meeting with the families of two youths must take place on this Monday back to school day. “Confronted with the young attacker's concern about being in the same unit, and despite the measures in place to prevent these two students from hitting each other, the head of the unit initiated a dialogue with the families to consider complementary measures or even education continues in another institution”, reports the Montpellier academy.
