Thousands of people, more than 80 percent of them minors, have been detained by French police following recent student protests, with the Justice Ministry confirming that over 1,500 minors have been referred to the courts.
But the crackdown has raised concerns beyond the arrests, as students and their families report alleged police mistreatment and harsh detention conditions, putting France’s treatment of young protesters and its commitment to children’s rights under scrutiny.
