The strange closure of the Islamic Institute of Boissy-Saint-Leger

By Anthony Brains | Rue89 | 27/05/2011 | 5:12 p.m.

It's been a month since the students of the French Institute for Islamic Studies and Social Sciences ( IFES ) can no longer attend classes within their school. One month they rally outside City Hall Boissy-Saint-Leger (Val de Marne) for permission to return to their premises, and they denounce a political issue.
On Tuesday, two of them began a hunger strike in protest.
IFES is an organization that offers courses on the Arab-Islamic civilization, outside normal school hours. Its residents follow traditional academic courses or work. They round off their Islamic culture in the evening or on weekends.
Since April 27, the school can no longer accommodate its students, following a ban imposed by the Tribunal de Grande Instance of Creteil. The reason: security problems.
The prosecution does not want to say more. Aziz, professor of management in the Province and a student of Arabic and Islamic science, has an explanation: the security issue in question concerns the access of disabled persons . (See video)

The institute does not have an entrance that people with disabilities. A dossier outlining the planned work has been filed in early April, according to the director. In a statement dated 12 May, the mayor of Boissy-Saint-Leger, Regis Charbonnier, explains that the architect of the association has yet to provide additional documents.
The Director of IFES, Ahmed Abidi, defends itself:

"We filed all documents and every time they told us it was a missing paper. We had to make five or six round trips. On Monday, the mayor finally acknowledged that the record was complete. Now we wait. "

The manager, also the subject of a judicial inquiry to include "hidden work, embezzlement and failure to report progress." He said the procedure is independent of the decision to deny access to school. Again, silence from prosecutors.
But Ahmed Abidi surprised exchanges of information between City Hall and the Créteil Court:

"The council cited in its statement that the charges alleged against me, so that this procedure only for justice and me. "

Neither the mayor of Boissy-Saint-Leger, nor the Prefecture of the Val-de-Marne were willing to express themselves.

"It takes place peacefully"

Meanwhile, students occupying the square of the town hall in anticipation of such authorization. Students in doctoral or master license in Parisian universities, but also workers, youth, elders. The institute is the meeting point between different social backgrounds and different ages.
Abdel, 26, student of Arabic and Islamic Sciences, said:

"We just ask that our right to education is respected and applied. There are protests peacefully. It has values: Saturday, they even cleaned and left free in front, because there was a wedding. People then came to thank us for our behavior. "

Despite its peaceful nature, the occupation authorities is frowned upon. "Someone told me that GR bother," said Aiman, a student. Saturday, after marriage, the students wanted to reinvest the forecourt. They were evicted, forcibly, by nearly a hundred mobile police. (See video)

Four of them have ended in police custody for resisting arrest. What they deny. Aziz was arrested that day. A rebellion, he replied:

"I have a side that has" faltered "- a term the doctor - as a result of the inquiry. There is more to taking a beating. "

Especially, students reveal some veiled comments that the police had held: "Your manager is an illegal immigrant," "Go into a school of 93", "If you want to go back to school, change of direction." For one of the hunger strikers, Aiman, 30, educator and students of Islamic science:

"There is a real climate of Islamophobia is a reality we live every day in this case. "

Aziz shares this sentiment and states:

"You know a lot of schools closed in the middle of the year for reasons of safety relating to access for people with disabilities? But when it comes to a school of Islamic science, we will search for lice. "

Students that some see as terrorist

Students challenge even the background, came to discuss on the spot. A student quips:

"You sort IFES how? As a school that trains terrorists, eh! "

The reference to Western France is hardly hidden. A brief in the regional newspaper classified the four students placed in custody under section ... "terrorist." Before replacing it with "education" and to apologize. Faced with their incessant demands for explanations, the students were taken for a ride between the town hall, court, and the prefecture. Aziz complained:

"What people do not understand is that we students, we are in the street. This training is something serious. It is attached. Teaching is demanding and quality. "

"The right to education is sacred"

Abdel is in discussions with RG who came to glean some information:

"You know we are not violent. In our school, we learn the values, rights and behavior.
But if today they are stealing our school, what they told us not take us as one of Seine-Saint-Denis, and then after that we will not as our mosques? "

He adds:

"If tomorrow they were to close a school Jewish or Christian, you will also be there to protest. The right to education is sacred. "

A sign reads "Hunger Strike: D +2". Aiman ​​says:

"The more time passes, the less it is effective, then to show our determination, we are ready to make a hunger strike, a purely political action. "

Pending a response other than sending the CRS.
