One of many cases of gang-rape by French soldiers towards Muslim women:
“Kheira Garne, Mohamed's biological mother, was 15 years old when she was taken to the Theniet El Had detention camp, where she was tortured and raped by soldiers of the French Army. After becoming pregnant, the soldiers tried to make her miscarry by kicking her in the stomach and continued to rape and abuse her throughout her pregnancy.
At his birth, Mohamed Garne was separated from Kheira because she was deemed incapable of caring for her child. He was entrusted to several wet nurses, under whose care he was very poorly treated. He was later found anorexic in a hospital in Algiers, with a skull fracture. Subsequently, a couple of writers decided to adopt him; however, when he was fifteen, the couple separated and forced him to return to the orphanage.
After a melancholic period marked by alcohol and self-harm, in 1986 Garne began searching for his biological mother. He found her one evening in September 1988 in the Algerian capital.”
It’s hard to put into words how upsetting these images are
