Photograph Of A Woman Being Kicked By A Policeman Goes Viral, Internet Comes Out In Defence
Jan Schmidt Whitley. a photographer in Paris, captured a heartbreaking moment when a riot policeman kicked a woman during a protest by students against a newly enacted labour law.
The woman was sitting in a nearby cafe when the police set off tear gas without considering that there were people around who were not a part of the protest. The woman walked up to the officer to tell him to stop, but he kicked her instead.
