Camille Julian High School of Barasse (13011) was the scene today Monday, January 12 as incomprehensible as a violent drama. A young French member of the Apostolic scouts, Armenian, Michael ASSATURYAN, has lost his life at 16 and a half, savagely attacked by a horde of young people determined to kill him.

The CCAF South, Coordination Council of Armenians in France in the southern region, condemn this tragedy and calls the court to act quickly. This premeditated murder, follows many anti-Armenian actions, and casts doubt on the nature of the attack. Violence strikes again blindly with savagery.

While a show of solidarity invaded France, condemning the hatred of the other, fanaticism and extremism, Marseille, following the great citizen rally, is a sad example of a situation that has deleterious for too long.

This tragedy highlights a climate of tension that prevails more in our neighborhoods, and our young are the sad victims.

This young man by his exemplary voluntary commitment only wanted to live a peaceful and serve his district and city.

The CFC, its sincere condolences, parents and friends of Michael.

He invites all who wish to pay tribute to this young activist, to come together this Tuesday, January 13 at 19:30 Armenian Apostolic Cathedral Marseille 339 Avenue du Prado 13008 Marseille
