Six teenagers in France have been convicted in connection with the 2020 beheading of history teacher Samuel Paty. The teacher had shown his pupils caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad in a class on freedom of expression, which led to some Muslim parents expressing their anger. The court found five of the defendants guilty of staking out the teacher and identifying him for the attacker. Another defendant, a teenage girl, was found guilty of falsely accusing Paty of asking Muslim pupils to leave the room before showing the caricatures. It was later established that she was not in the class at the time.
The heaviest sentence was given to an adolescent who received a 6-month prison sentence, while the girl who made false accusations was given an 18-month suspended sentence and probation measures for two years.
