"This is a trial that will take place behind closed doors even though it is a matter of public interest. And in there, Mickaëlle Paty wishes to understand an entire ecosystem made up of the Islamism of some and the complacency of others, which has allowed a disastrous succession, a fatal combination of little acts of cowardice, big lies, calumnies, arrangements, complicity, without which Samuel Patty would still be alive."

8. SOUNDBITE (French) Louis Cailliez, lawyer for the victim's family:
"Without the minor's denunciation, which is at the origin of all this cabal, without denunciation there would be no visibility (on the social media), without visibility, there would be no crime. That's the inescapable logic."

10. SOUNDBITE (French) Louis Cailliez, lawyer for the victim's family:
"Those five minors (defendants) will have to explain themselves as to why they did not warn anyone. Samuel Paty could have been saved had they warned someone in the two hours that the terrorist spent outside the school."

"He's consumed by remorse as I said, and he's very apprehensive of finding himself face to face with Mr Paty's family."

15. SOUNDBITE (French) Antoine Ory, lawyer for one of the defendants:
"Obviously he was not aware of the criminal endeavour or even that there was a plan to commit violence against Mr. Paty and he was not aware of this criminal endeavour for which he is facing the court today."

17. SOUNDBITE (French) Antoine Ory, lawyer for one of the defendants:
"The idea is not to pass him off as a victim but he has tried to revive his life, despite having to uproot his life, change school, change high school, and start over from scratch. Of course, it was hard for him but this period is also an opportunity to turn a page."

STORYLINE:
Six teenagers go on trial Monday in Paris for their alleged roles in the beheading of a teacher who showed caricatures of the prophet of Islam to his class, a killing that led authorities to reaffirm France's cherished rights of expression and secularism.

Samuel Paty, a history and geography teacher, was killed on Oct. 16, 2020, near his school in a northwest Paris suburb by an 18-year-old of Chechen origin who had become radicalized.

The attacker was in turn shot dead by police.

Paty’s name was disclosed on social media after a class debate on free expression during which he showed caricatures published by the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, which triggered a newsroom massacre by extremists in January 2015.

All hearings at a Paris juvenile court are to be held behind closed doors in accordance with French law regarding minors.

The defendants arrived Monday morning at the Paris court, their faces hidden behind masks and hoods, accompanied by their families.
