People gather on Place de la Republique in Paris on October 18, 2020, in homage to history teacher Samuel Paty two days after he was beheaded by an attacker who was shot dead by policemen.
Some in the crowd chanted “I am Samuel”, echoing the widespread “I am Charlie” cry after Islamist gunmen killed 12 people at the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine in 2015 for publishing caricatures of the Islamic prophet.“I am here as a teacher, as a mother, as a Frenchwoman and as a republican,” said participant Virginie.
The presidency said action would be taken against anyone expressing support for the attack, without giving any further details Sunday. “Everyone is in danger today,” said student Valentine Mule, 18, attending the Nice rally. “Things have to change.” On Saturday, anti-terror prosecutor Ricard said the teacher had been the target of online threats for showing the cartoons to his civics class.The father of one schoolgirl had launched an online call for “mobilisation” against the teacher and had sought his dismissal from the school.
