A 12-year-old Jewish girl reported to the police last week that she had been gang raped by three teenagers aged between 12-14 in what has been characterized an antisemitic crime, according to Le Parisien on Tuesday.
The crime occurred in the Parisian suburb of Courbevoie.
Le Parisien added that the three suspects are set to be brought to court on Tuesday.
Suspect moved by vengeance
One of the suspected perpetrators of the crime was an ex-boyfriend of the victim who reportedly said he was moved by vengeance after the victim hid from him her Jewish identity.
Furthermore, Le Parisien noted that investigators found in the suspect's phone antisemitic remarks and images, among which were a burned Israeli flag.
An additional suspect told the police, according to Le Parisen, that he hit the victim because she had made negative comments on Palestine.
