Naama Asfari continues hunger strike

The Friends of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic Association confirmed that Sahrawi civilian prisoner Naama Asfari, a member of the "Gdeim Izik" group, continues his open-ended hunger strike since June 8 to demand the implementation of a United Nations ruling that classified his detention as arbitrary. This comes after a series of protests that went unanswered by the Moroccan authorities. The association pointed out that the convictions against the prisoners are based on confessions extracted through torture, and that there is medical negligence and retaliatory practices against Sahrawi prisoners. It called for the release of all "Gdeim Izik" detainees and urged the international community and human rights organizations to intervene and put an end to this situation.
