Sunday, Romain (a given name, Editor's note) testified of his aggression, photos in support, with the site LBGT + Gayviking. Then he confided, anonymously, to BFM TV, unveiling the many brands he wears of his aggression, in the face, on the hands and on the chest.
The dissemination of these shocking images makes Internet users, badociations and politicians react at local and national level.

Questioned by AFP, the public prosecutor Pascal Prache "confirmed" that an "investigation is in progress" for homophobic aggression and kidnapping. It was entrusted to the Departmental Security of Seine-Maritime.
This new aggression comes in a context of rising homophobic acts, denounced by the badociations. On Sunday 21 October, 2,500 people demonstrated at the initiative of two badociations, SOS Homophobie and Inter-LGBT, in Paris with the slogan: "Homophobia has no place in the Republic."
In 2017, SOS homophobia saw a 4.8% increase in LGBTphobic acts. An upward trend already noted in 2016 (+19.5% of the acts). According to this badociation, we would count 1 homophobic physical aggression every 3 days in France in 2017.
