Muslim mother and uncle who gave offensive t-shirt to son convicted for incitement
A mother who sent her three-year-old son named Jihad to nursery school wearing a top bearing the words ‘I am a bomb’ has been convicted of justifying terrorism by a court in France.Exactly. It's basically child exploitation, and they should have their custody revoked.
Beneath the boy’s name on the back of the jumper was written ‘Born on the 11 September’ - the date of the 9/11 terror attacks on New York’s twin towers, the court heard.
Muslim mum Bouchra Bagour, 35, was reported to police by the boy’s outraged teacher last year and charged with justifying a terrorist act.
The boy’s uncle Zeyad Bagour, 29, who gave the boy the offending top, was also charged with the same offence.
The pair were initially cleared by a lower court in the southern French city of Avignon in April.
But they were both found guilty by a court in Nimes today after prosecutors appealed their acquittal.
Thierry Lagneau, the mayor of the southern French town of Sorgues, said when they were first charged: “We fully support charges being brought against them for provoking hatred and terrorism in one of our schools.
“This was an utterly irresponsible act by people who used a child to belittle a terrible crime and promote a violent political belief of her own.”
