The Max Jacob college in Saint-Jean-de-la-Ruelle (Loiret), near Orleans, had to be evacuated on Tuesday following a bomb threat.

Latifa Ibn Ziaten, the mother of Imad Ibn Ziaten, one of the soldiers killed by Mohammed Merah in 2012, intervened with a class of the college, tells

.

The emergency procedure interrupted his conference: an anonymous individual called the reception of the college threatening to "blow everything up".

330 students and staff quickly left the scene.

Once the 25 rooms of the buildings had been emptied of their occupants, the premises were combed through in the middle of the day.

The thirty or so police officers dispatched to the scene did not discover anything.

Latifa Ibn Ziaten potential "target"

The bomb threat was lifted around 1 p.m.

Latifa Ibn Ziaten was "the first to be evacuated, insofar as she could have been a target," the police said.

The college of Saint-Jean-de-la-Ruelle is the second school in Loiret evacuated due to a bomb threat in two days.

The day before, the Benjamin Franklin high school in Orleans had also received a similar threat which proved to be unfounded.
