Abdelali Bamad, 35, was sentenced to two years in prison for "insulting the national flag and the symbol of the State". This is the verdict handed down by the court of first instance in Khénifra.
Omar Balafrej, deputy of the Federation of the Democratic Left (FGD) is committed to his draft law of general amnesty for the detainees of the Hirak movement of the Rif as well as for all the activists of the social protest movements. In this sense, he recently launched an appeal for support from his colleagues for its adoption in order to "appease the situation and avoid an explosion".
Omar Radi, a Moroccan journalist and human rights activist, was placed in detention on Thursday for a tweet denouncing a court decision.
Four detainees of the Hirak have been transferred from the Ras El Ma prison in Fez to the local prison of Guercif. This decision aims to bring them closer to their families.
In reaction to allegations about a hunger strike by 14 Hirak detainees in Al Hoceima, the administration of the local Tanger II prison has provided a formal denial.
Faced with the refusal of the management of the Ras El Ma prison in Fez to respond favorably to their demands, the 6 Hirak detainees, including leader Nasser Zefzafi, announce a new hunger strike.
Nasser Zefzafi and Nabil Ahamjik have suspended the hunger strike they had been observing for a few days. The two leaders of the Hirak of Al Hoceima had been sanctioned by the General Delegation for Prison Administration and Reintegration (DGAPR), following the leak of an audio recording of Nasser Zefzafi.
Nasser Zefzafi claims in a voice message published a few days ago to have suffered obscene acts of violence and indecency during his arrest. These statements provoke a reaction from the Public Prosecutor’s Office.
Rabie Al Ablaq has decided to end his latest hunger strike , after more than 46 days of food deprivation. Through a letter dated October 31, the Hirak du Rif detainee informed the administration of the Tangier prison of his interruption.
One of the priority demands raised by the protesters of the Hirak of the Rif is about to be met. A partnership agreement was signed on October 30 in Al Hoceima for the creation of a multidisciplinary faculty and a National School of Commerce and Management (ENCG) in the commune of Aït Kamra.
An investigation has been opened regarding the video on Facebook, attributed to the Hirak detainee, Nasser Zefzafi, according to a press release from the DGPAR.
The Hirak detainees, as well as their families, have strongly condemned the people who burned the Moroccan flag during a demonstration that took place in Paris.
