French Teen Who Criticised Islam Receives 30 Hate Messages a Minute
19 Jan 2021
The French teenager who received death threats after criticising Islam online and was briefly the subject of a hate crime investigation receives 30 hate messages a minute.
Mila, then aged 16, came to media attention in February 2020 when she was subject to a “hate provocation” investigation after making comments critical of Islam, at one point saying to a social media user: “I hate religion. The Quran is… full of hate. There is only hate in it. Islam is a shit religion. That’s what I think.”
The local public prosecutor dropped the case against the young woman, proceeding to investigate the barrage of death threats being levelled against her.
