Al Hoceima court sentences six minors over Imzouren Gen Z protests

The Court of Appeals in Al Hoceima has rendered a verdict against six minors linked to the events in Imzouren at the start of October during the "Generation Z" protests. Each has been sentenced to one year in prison, with only half to be served and the remainder suspended.

The court also mandated that the guardians of these minors collectively pay 2,500 dirhams per child to the General Directorate of National Security, along with the legal costs as stipulated by law.

The charges against the defendants were serious, including arson of vehicles, obstructing public roads, vandalizing public property, armed rebellion, insulting officials and law enforcement officers during their duties, and participating in a nighttime armed gathering.
