Student says she was punched in face in Strasbourg by three men who said \u2018look at that whore\u2019<\/p>\n

24 Sep 2020 – French police have opened an investigation after a young woman said she was attacked by three men and beaten in public for wearing a skirt.<\/p>\n

The government denounced the \u201cvery serious\u201d incident as unacceptable, which came amid growing anger in France<\/a> at physical and verbal abuse towards women over their dress in public.<\/p>\n

The student, 22, identified only as Elisabeth, said she was punched in the face in the eastern city of Strasbourg on Friday afternoon, in an attack \u201cby three individuals who complained about me wearing a skirt\u201d.<\/p>\n

She was walking home when one of the three exclaimed \u201clook at that whore in a skirt\u201d, Elisabeth told France Bleu Alsace radio. Two of them then held her while the third hit her in the face, leaving her with a black eye, she told the radio station. The men then fled.<\/p>\n

She said there were more than a dozen witnesses but no one intervened or pursued the attackers.<\/p>\n

A picture of Elisabeth\u2019s bruised face was posted on the Twitter account of France Bleu Alsace and went viral, provoking fury among social media users.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe facts as stated are very serious,\u201d said the government\u2019s spokesman, Gabriel Attal. \u201cIn France we must be able to go out dressed in the street as we want. We cannot accept that today in France, a woman feels in danger, either harassed, threatened or beaten because of how she dresses.\u201d<\/p>\n

‘France’s shame’: thousands protest against gender violence<\/a><\/p>\n

The junior interior minister in charge of equality issues, Marl\u00e8ne Schiappa, visited Strasbourg on Wednesday to discuss the safety of women in public.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we witness street harassment, sexist or sexual assault against women in a public space, we must react, and call the police or the gendarmerie,\u201d she told the LCI television channel.<\/p>\n

President Emmanuel Macron\u2019s centrist government has in recent weeks begun using increasingly tough rhetoric on domestic security issues in what analysts see as a shift to the right.<\/p>\n

On Thursday a man was handed a two-month suspended jail sentence in another case, for assaulting two women \u2013 one of whose outfit he claimed was too short.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old was detained on Wednesday and sentenced a day later under a special fast-track procedure allowed under French law.<\/p>\n

The two women were waiting for a tram in Mulhouse when the man told the woman who was wearing mini-shorts: \u201cDon\u2019t you want to dress even shorter?\u201d He subsequently pushed the young woman who fell to the ground.<\/p>\n

In addition to the suspended sentence, the man was ordered to undergo 75 hours of community service and have citizenship classes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
