Moroccan Students Arrested for Boycotting Carrefour: Human Rights Group Demands Release

The human rights defenders of the city of Tetouan denounce the arrest of three students. They demand "the immediate and unconditional release of the detained students, given that the act they have committed is part of forms of peaceful and legitimate protest". The local office of the Moroccan Association of Human Rights in Tetouan has rejected "all forms of restrictions and repression to which activists and supporters of the Palestinian cause are exposed", adds the same source.

To recall, the Carrefour store is the target of a boycott campaign launched by activists opposed to the normalization of relations with Israel. According to them, the brand is one of the main companies that finance "the war of genocide against the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip".
