A 16-year-old teenager, attending a high school in the 13th arrondissement, was found sequestered in a cellar according to information from Europe 1. Stripped, beaten and with his face burned to death with hot water, he was admitted to a specialized hospital for severe burns. The perpetrators are currently being sought by the police.
It is a sordid story experienced by a teenager, attending a Parisian high school in the 13th arrondissement of Paris between January 22 and 24. According to information from Europe 1, the 16-year-old young man, sequestered in a cellar, was found naked, his body covered in bruises and his face burned to death. The high school student had not given any sign of life to his loved ones for several days while he was summoned to court following an arrest for burglary.
Victim of harassment since the start of the school year
Victim of harassment in his establishment since last September, the teenager had not been going to class for several weeks and was no longer eating properly, according to information obtained by the Europe 1 police-justice service. When the complaint was filed from his mother, the latter underlined a growing anxiety in the young man who was regularly "forced to go down to the bottom of his building" to give money to unidentified individuals.
Feeling that her son was in danger, the mother had partially entrusted custody of the victim to her sister, whose home was in a town bordering Paris. The victim, found in a cellar, was rushed to the burns department of Trousseau hospital. The latter refuses for the moment to give explanations for this sequestration.
