Hollande says schoolgirl may return to France after expulsion
None
President Francois Hollande said on Saturday the 15-year-old schoolgirl whose expulsion from France has sparked uproar could return to pursue her studies but without her family, a compromise following criticism from left-wing allies.
The outcry began after Leonarda Dibrani, whose family entered the country illegally in 2009, was ordered off a school bus by police in front of classmates before being sent this month to Kosovo, her father's native country. Thousands of students marched through the streets of Paris and surrounding cities on Friday demanding that she be allowed to return to France. (Reuters)
