Further cases of violence emerge as Lyhanna's case puts French justice under pressure
France’s justice minister has rejected calls to resign following public outrage over judicial failures linked to the killing of an 11-year-old girl. The case has renewed scrutiny of how sexual abuse allegations are handled across the country. According to the independent commission CIIVISE, only 7% of reported sexual assaults against minors lead to a conviction. Amid growing demands for reform, here is the story of Léa.
