The complaints lodged by several families concern children aged 3 to 6 attending school Montessori school located in Granada, about thirty kilometers north of Toulouse. Dominique Alzéari, the public prosecutor of Toulouse confirmed this Wednesday that an “investigation is underway” after these complaints for sexual assault going to rape which target a teacher and an atsem of this establishment out of contract which accommodates 70 children.
Jean Balbo, the lawyer for one of the complainant families assures AFP that the latter is “stunned, upset by the revelation that was made by the child”. “This is of course the word of the child that must be taken with caution but their number gives a certain legitimacy to what they say”, he adds.
Those targeted have left school
Since La Dépêche du Midi revealed the case on Tuesday, indicating that around fifteen children would be affected, the school administration reacted on
his website : “Our thoughts are with the complainant families and their children”, she wrote, considering that these “acts, so proven, have no place in a school”. She also specifies that “the staff members targeted by these accusations immediately left the school environment, adding that no” member of the team has ever witnessed any inappropriate gesture on their part. The establishment has also itself filed a complaint against X, he says.
The investigation was entrusted to the gendarmes.
