A video shared widely on social networks showing police surrounding student protesters on their knees has sparked a lot of angry reaction in France.
Dozens of teenagers are seen kneeling on the floor in the footage — some are facing a wall with their hands bound behind their backs, while others are lined up in rows with their hands behind their heads as riot police look on.
The source of the video appears to mock the group’s behaviour, remarking: “This is a class that is wise.”
