Salafist detainees in Morocco have denounced, on several occasions, the Imlil killings. They fear that the tragedy would impact the «Moussalaha» program, which has allowed several Islamist prisoners to regain freedom.
Ten days after two Scandinavian tourists were brutally murdered near Imlil, authorities implemented new security measures. According to locals in the High Atlas town, tourists are now forced to hire guides to climb Mount Toubkal.
