Paris: “On the Koran, We’re Going to Kill you, Bunch of Peds!”

Alexandre Marcel, vice-president of the Comité Idaho, an NGO that organises the international day against homophobia and transphobia, confirmed that he had filed a complaint against X on Saturday, following an attack on Friday night while he was in “Cud”, a gay club in the Marais district of Paris.

“At 2:30 in the morning I came out of a bar to smoke a cigarette with my companion when five guys arrived and started hitting the bouncers. They said: “On the Koran, we’re going to kill you, bunch of peds!”, he recalls. “I wanted to go back into the club. One of the bouncers, who was bleeding badly, told me to call the police,” he goes on. “One of the attackers saw me calling, and sprayed me with tear-gas on the face,” he added.

In total, three bouncers received blows, and himself, his companion and some clients of the bar were sprayed with tear gas, explains Alexander Marcel. “My eyes and skin don’t burn as much, but I am coughing and spitting a lot more,” he recalls, 16 houts after the facts. “The worst thing is that the bouncers told me that they weren’t going to file a complaint because they wouldn’t be found anyway,” he says with regret.
