Vidin is taking out a civil protest against aggression and violence. The reason for the demonstration is the scandalous case in which a 13-year-old boy from a crisis center in the city hit and knocked another, younger child to the ground. The protest in Vidin begins at 5:00 p.m. in front of the District Office, and the parents of the injured boy have demanded urgent measures.
According to information from NOVA, the parents of the abuser have given up on him in writing and he was left for adoption from abroad.
The footage of the violence against 12-year-old Georgi quickly went viral on social networks. The boy is admitted to the Vidin hospital with a concussion and a facial wound.
The Children's Pedagogical Room announced that the maximum punishment that can be imposed on the aggressive teenager is to be sent to a boarding school. The decision on this will be made by a municipal commission, which is meeting today by order of the chairwoman of the Commission for Combating Antisocial Behavior Borislava Borisova, deputy mayor for humanitarian activities and social policy. The meeting will be held behind closed doors and the minor boy must appear. The commission's decision will be submitted to the court, which must decide whether the child should be placed in a boarding school.
According to NOVA, this is not the first case of aggression by the 13-year-old. He was enrolled in one of the local schools, which, however, he only attends on two school days. He first showed aggression towards his student, and then slapped another child. He also behaves arrogantly with his teachers. The school management has taken all measures, the school told NOVA.
The organizer of today's protest in Vidin - Bari Rusev, said on the air of "Hello, Bulgaria" that the demonstration is civil, not political. "The main reason for the protest is what happened on Sunday with Georgi. We don't want this aggressive attacker to live among us anymore. Because today he was Georgi, and tomorrow he will be my child," Rusev said.
