French intelligence officers question a Turkish-French high school student about his Muslim identity and for alleged extremism after rejecting his teacher's claims about the Armenian events that occurred in 1915

High school student Altay faces threats of imprisonment after rejecting his teacher's claims about events of 1915.

Altay and his family, who did not share their last name over concerns for their safety, recounted the events to Anadolu Agency, saying that his teacher had devoted half of the 2-hour class to the Armenian claims, continually saying that Turks "killed Armenians" and civilians. After doing some research, he found out that none of his comments constituted a crime in France and that the European Court of Human Rights did not oblige defining the 1915 events as a "genocide."After the incident, Altay was called a week later by intelligence forces to answer questions.

Altay's father, Aydin, said that during his meeting with the principal of his son's school, he had been told that the teenager was "facing a very bad incident," and that he could be fined or jailed. "I said: 'But you convey everything to the high authorities, why don't you punish him? If he's guilty, then you need to punish him.' Then they were silent. They didn't say anything."

This has nothing to do with islamophobia. They are educating students about the Armenian genocide in France sure, just like they teach about the Holocaust, but imagine someone denying it in class and asking for evidences! He’s a moron, get over it

ArnoudvDoorn opression in macronistan

ArnoudvDoorn books to read 1. Erickson: Ottoman and Armenians 2. Cicek: The Great War and the Forced Migration of Armenians 3. McCarthy: Death and Exile. The Ethnic Cleansing of Ottoman Muslims 4. Salt: The Last Ottoman Wars 5. Lewy: The Armenian massacres

The freedom of expression that France advocates is completely that.

Ma*sh*Allakh, Altai ❤️🇹🇷🇦🇿🇵🇰🇪🇬🇮🇷...✨☀️☝️ Bravo, Altai 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋💪💪💪💪💪

Wow! You people kill Muslims like insects but you are on the right, but a Muslim student rejecting a historical event and ideas encircling it is a suspect of terrorist ideas! Claps for your hypocrisy

Lol, imagine going to jail for asking evidence in history class. The teacher must be real expert on topic so that he became so angry and say something nonsence like that.

Very Good ! Both should be punished according to the French law. 🙂

Looks like Christian world specially France is failing to hide animosity with the Muslims and up for revenge for it's past defeats by Muslims.
