Moroccan Justice Minister Mulls Extradition Halt Over Spain Delays
The Moroccan Ministry of Justice is considering suspending the implementation of the extradition treaty with Spain due to delays in executing extradition requests from the Spanish side. This move comes amid deteriorating relations between the two countries following the Melilla crisis and escalating political disputes over sovereignty over the two cities. Justice Minister Abdelatif Hhabi indicated that the issues are not related to coordination problems during the initial stages of extradition, but rather to difficulties encountered later on when suspects are detained in Spain and their identities are confirmed, leading to delays in the extradition process. This step follows criticism of the Spanish side, including in the case of Moroccan minors, and represents a legal and political development in bilateral relations, potentially leading to the annulment or long-term suspension of the treaty.
