An English teacher was sentenced Wednesday by the criminal court of Valenciennes (Nord) three-month prison sentence for racist remarks directed at one of his students in June 2007.
Prosecutors had requested three months suspended prison sentence against the professor, who was transferred and sanctioned by the national education since the event, which was also ordered to pay 750 euros in damages the student question and the euro in MRAP, told AFP Jean-Claude Dulieu, Chairman of the Movement against Racism and for Friendship among Peoples.
"IT IS THE WORK OF gook"
The teacher, who denied the facts alleged against him, asked in June 2007 to three students from 5th class to store the result of a course. With the work, he told one student, of North African origin, "it is work of gook," said Mr Dulieu.
"This kind of talk is unacceptable, especially from a teacher who has the task of forming autonomous and responsible citizens" said Mr Dulieu.
In August 2007 in Epinal, a teacher was sentenced to one month's imprisonment suspended for racist remarks uttered against a student from Angola. "You're black, you steal, right?" or "Ah, here Bamboula!" he addressed him in particular, according to comments reported by his students in Senior School of Education, which appeared in the complaint.
