Al Hoceima witnessed on Monday violent clashes between demonstrators and the police. The number of injured persons is unknown.
Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International said today that the police allegedly «severely beat» the detained Hirak leader Nasser Zefzafi. Relying on an account given by one of the activist’s lawyers, the international organizations call for a medical examination of the detainee to ensure his safety.
Urged by NGOs to interfere in the favor of the Hirak detainees, Emmanuel Macron claimed that “a will to repress” the Rif by the Moroccan authorities is hardly occurring. A supporting statement that tends to be less surprising.
