France to sue teen girl for falsely accusing teacher in hijab row

French PM Gabriel Attal said the state will sue a teenage girl for falsely accusing her school teacher of hitting her after she was asked to remove her hijab. The teacher had insisted that the student remove her hijab inside the school, in accordance with French law. "The state...will always stand with these officials...who are...faced with...breaches of secularism," Attal said.
