Morocco : Nine people sentenced to prison for terrorism

The Criminal Chamber in charge of terrorism cases near the appendix of the Court of Appeals in Salé delivered on Thursday evening sentences ranging from one year of suspended prison to three years of imprisonment against nine people, including a woman, prosecuted for acts related to terrorism.

The Chamber thus sentenced to three years two accused prosecuted for «terrorism» and two years in prison for four others. 

A seventh suspect was sentenced to one year in prison, while a girl who was prosecuted in a state of freedom was given a one-year suspended prison sentence with a fine of 5,000 DH. These accused were charged for «terrorism».

The Court decided to drop the charges against the ninth accused, who had served a ten-year prison term for acts related to terrorism.

In addition, the Court has decided to postpone, until the 20th of July, the examination of five cases in which more than 30 suspects are prosecuted.
