A girl, 12, was gang-raped in an alleged anti-Semitic attack by three youths in France last weekend.
The victim from Courbevoie, in the Hauts-de-Seine suburb northwest of the French capital, and her parents filed a police report.
They accused the girl’s ex-boyfriend, 12, and two other boys, aged 13 and 14, of leading her into a shed where they beat her and raped her, all while threatening to kill her and insulting her for her religion.
HOW SHE WAS RAPED
She said she went to the Henri Regnault Square with her boyfriend when three teenagers grabbed her and took her to an abandoned hangar on the site of an old nursery nearby.
Local prosecutors have opened an investigation into the rape and the alleged perpetrators were identified as three boys aged 12, 13, and 14 from Rueil-Malmaison, also in Hauts-de-Seine.
They were arrested on Monday after a gynaecological examination at a local hospital confirmed the rape.
The boys appeared in front of a judge this afternoon and reportedly admitted to the rape.
The girl’s former boyfriend told police that he was angry she hid being Jewish from him and wanted revenge, according to Le Parisien.

EVIDENCES STACKED UP AGAINST HIM
Investigators allegedly found anti-Semitic comments and images, including that of a burned Israeli flag, on the boy’s phone.
One of his friends reportedly told police that he had hit the girl because she said bad things about Palestine.
The local prosecutor’s office said in a statement that the boys are charged with counts of aggravated rape, aggravated sexual assault, attempted extortion, invasion of privacy, threat of death, violence and insults, with the latter two being aggravated due to them admitting the attack was related to the girl’s religion.
