The British teenager who threw a 6-year-old French boy down from the viewing platform of the Tate Modern museum in London last year has been sentenced to at least 15 years’ imprisonment. The victim landed 30 meters lower on the roof of the fifth floor of the building and was seriously injured.

Jonty Bravery, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, stated that he had committed the act of getting on television. He was guilty of attempted murder in December. Bravery had deliberately planned the attack, according to the prosecution.
Strictly secured
Psychological research has shown that the teenager is autistic and has a personality disorder. He was treated in a highly secured hospital and had previously told rescuers he wanted to kill someone.
A British judge ordered Bravery to grumble. He stated that the teenager had gone to the viewing platform, looked around and deliberately chose the French boy as the victim.
According to the judge, the boy sustained permanent injuries that changed his life. The child’s parents stated on Friday that the child is in a wheelchair, is weak and talks little. “The fear that the boy must have felt and the misery for him and his parents are unimaginable,” said the judge during the ruling.
