On October 4, in Kingersheim in Alsace, Dinah, a 14-year-old teenager, ended her life.
Her mother has since denounced the bullying of which her daughter was the victim after announcing to her friends "that she was LGBT".
A drama that shook the host-producer Arthur.
"Terrible epilogue after two years of bullying at school to the sounds of" Dirty lesbian, dirty Arab, dirty mestizo ".
Two long years, ”he wrote on Instagram in caption of a photo of the smiling girl.
If the Mulhouse prosecutor's office has since opened an investigation for "harassment", the presenter of
Friday everything is allowed
denounces the silence and inaction which led to this terrible outcome.
“Everyone knew, nobody said anything, did nothing.
By closing our eyes to harassment, we are all accomplices, ”he says.
Stop harassment
During the white march in tribute to her daughter, Dinah's mother notably reproached the teaching staff for having "closed their eyes", while they asked for help to put an end to the insults and jostling in progress and on social networks. According to the parents of the teenager, the latter regularly received "racist or homophobic" insults. Dinah had made a first suicide attempt in March. If a confrontation was organized with those who harassed her, nothing has changed. "They sent him a letter to tell him 'Don't worry, next time it's the right one, we'll show you methods so as not to miss you," "Dinah's mother told RTL.
For Arthur, it is incomprehension.
“In an interview, Dinah's brother made this terrible observation of helplessness: 'I would like to understand what drives teenagers to keep hitting the same person.
I too would like to understand, ”adds the host.
