Rights Group Urges UN to Free Sahrawi Political Prisoners
The Organization of Human Rights Defenders in Western Sahara (CODHES) has turned to the United Nations to press Morocco to release the Sahrawi political prisoners, especially the group known as "Gdeim Izik." The organization confirmed that their continued detention contradicts the decisions of UN human rights mechanisms, and called for necessary measures to ensure their protection and to verify their conditions independently, with a focus on preventing torture or ill-treatment. UN reports indicate that the imprisonment of these prisoners is arbitrary, and that the year 2026 is considered crucial for monitoring issues related to torture and humane treatment. The reports also highlighted the prisoners' repeated protests inside the prisons, urging for a direct and effective follow-up on the situation.
