Further cases of violence emerge as Lyhanna's case puts French justice under pressure • FRANCE 24

This page reports on the escalating concerns in France regarding the handling of violence and sexual abuse cases, sparked by the tragic death of an 11-year-old girl named Lyhanna. The French justice system is facing mounting criticism as only a small fraction of reported sexual assaults against minors result in convictions, according to the independent commission CIIVISE. The justice minister has faced public demands to resign but remains in office amid these controversies. The coverage highlights the pressing need for judicial reforms to better protect victims and ensure accountability.

Additionally, the page shares the story of Léa, a young woman who filed a rape complaint at age 11 but has seen no legal resolution six years later. This example underscores the systemic issues in addressing sexual violence in France and the challenges victims face in obtaining justice. The case has intensified calls for improvements in the legal process surrounding sexual abuse allegations.
