A Hirak appeal hearing rescheduled for January 14th

Initially scheduled for Monday, January the 7th, an appeal hearing for Hirak detainees and journalist Hamid El Mahdaoui has been postponed to January the 14th.

Mohamed Jelloul, a Hirak activist currently prosecuted, announced at the opening of the session that the rest of the detainees refuse to appear before the judge after they were locked in a glass cage. They started a sit-in in the court before the judge decided to reschedule the hearing.

Yesterday’s hearing was marked by the presence of a British delegation, which included representatives from the British diplomatic mission in Morocco.
