Sahrawi detainee family urges action
The Sahrawi prisoner and member of the "Aldjemi Ezzik" detainees group, Abdullah Lkhfouni, entered into a hunger strike today, Monday, to protest the systematic violations he endures inside the Moroccan occupational prison in Ksar El Kebir, particularly regarding the lack of adequate healthcare. This came after he was transferred to an unqualified doctor who neither examined nor adequately treated him, despite his worsening health condition. He also demanded the enforcement of the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention's decision issued in May 2023, which declared his detention illegitimate. The strike highlights the ongoing plight of the "Aldjemi Ezzik" detainees, who are still serving sentences under conditions criticized by human rights organizations, despite UN calls for their release. The prisoner's family has called for urgent international action to protect him, ensure his rights to treatment, and hold the Moroccan occupation legally and morally accountable.
