Pupils from an ultra-Orthodox Jewish boarding school near Paris have been taken into care after allegations they had been cut off from their families and subjected to years of abuse.

Many of the children came from Israel and the US and spoke no French. One relative said parents thought they were sending their children abroad to a Harry Potter school".
