Luka, harassed in several establishments for several years, received a surprise and noticed visit on Tuesday February 27 after classes at Lag spirit MC city of popes.

Class. Despite the deafening noise of the exhaust pipes, they swear that they heard nothing from their classroom. Because it was a nice surprise that awaited Luka and his best friend on Tuesday, February 27, when classes got out.

Fifteen bikers for two students

A student at Claude-Chappe college in Gallargues, Luka is the victim of school harassment. He and his family have been accompanied since July 2023 by the Lag spirit MC city of popes association. Made up of bikers from the ranks of law enforcement, this association, whose local branch is based in Avignon, supports harassed children. Motorcycle outings, regular contact, the idea is that young people feel supported, summary Gunner, Lukas' biker godfather.

Today, for the second time since the start of the school year, he came to pick up his godson to take him home on a motorbike, not without picking up a & nbsp;fifteen colleagues! A demonstration which drew a delighted expression from Luka, to the great happiness of his mother, Vanessa, "moved to see him smile a little".

A heavy and ineffective protection device

Because the harassment has not stopped. After an 18-day break and the winter holidays, Luka returned to class the day before just as anxious, still supervised by a system as heavy for the administration as for them, and which seems, they say, they, insufficient to protect him and his best friend.

"This morning it started again, and yesterday, all afternoon." Quiet during a recess where the harassers seemed absent, they hesitated to leave the area assigned to them in the playground, before giving up for fear of being reproached for it. &amp ;quot;They feel like they're in prison, adds Vanessa, Luka's mother. Ultimately, it is up to the harassed to bear the weight of their abuse ?

When asked on site, the principal of the college did not comment.
