A 23-year-old man named Quentin was brutally beaten to death outside Sciences Po Lyon on 12 February. Militants linked to the Antifa-aligned Jeune Garde movement repeatedly struck him in the head.
Deadly Clash Over Women’s Safety Campaign
Quentin was working security for Némésis, a group campaigning for European women’s safety. Around 40 militants confronted about 15 security staff protecting female activists from the right-wing feminist collective.

The violence erupted during a conference hosted by La France Insoumise MEP Rima Hassan. It started when female members of Némésis unfurled a banner condemning “Islamo-leftists,” sparking a furious backlash.
Violence Escalates with Fatal Consequences
Alice Cordier, director of Némésis, revealed that the women faced physical attacks from anti-fascist groups. One 19-year-old woman was reportedly strangled and dragged during the chaos.
