Paris School Principal Threatened: Man Sentenced to Citizenship Course

A 27-year-old man received a sentence for threatening a school principal on social media following a dispute over a student's headscarf.

Ibni-Akram A., 27, was convicted for posting a violent threat against the principal of Maurice-Ravel school in Paris after a headscarf-related altercation.
The court sentenced him to a fine and a five-day citizenship course, while deciding not to record the conviction on his criminal record.
The principal had left his position following the incident, which led to a wave of online threats against him.
The man's lawyer described the sentence as 'logical and adapted,' while the principal's lawyer criticized it as insufficient given the threat's severity.
Two other individuals faced legal actions for similar threats, with one receiving community service and another awaiting sentencing.
