Concern over health of detained journalists on hunger strike: Morocco

Euro Med Monitor
Geneva – The Moroccan authorities have continued to detain journalists Omar Al-Radi and Suleiman Al-Raissouni in Oukacha prison in Casablanca, which led them to declare a hunger strike to demand their release, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said today in a statement expressing great concern over their health condition.

The Prosecutor of the Court of First Instance in Casablanca detained Omar Al-Radi, president of the Le Desk magazine on July 29 last year. Al-Radi had been summoned more than eight times within five weeks, during which, he was interrogated for about 100 hours. These were based on charges related to receiving foreign funding from foreign intelligence groups, and sexually assaulting a colleague working in the magazine, who claimed that he assaulted her on the night of July 12 last year.
