President François Hollande has expressed outrage after a vigilante gang savagely beat and tortured a teenage Roma immigrant in a northern suburb of Paris.

The 16-year old was left for dead in a supermarket trolley with multiple skull fractures after being kidnapped from a Roma camp by a gang of around 20 youths from a nearby, multi-racial council estate who believed he was a burglar.

It is believed that the Roma teenager, named only as Darius, was arrested for burglary several times in the last two weeks at Pierrefitte, in Seine-Saint-Denis, just north of Paris.

President Hollande condemned “unspeakable and unjustifiable actions which strike against all the principles on which our Republic is founded”. The interior minister, Bernard Cazeneuve, said that only the police and the justice system had the right to investigate and punish crimes.

“Everything possible will be done to bring the culprits to justice,” he said.
