The judge and lawyer Zohour Al-Har has passed away. She was one of the most important Moroccan figures in the judicial field and human rights. She participated in reviewing the Family Code introduced in 2004. Born in Casablanca in 1947, she began her career as a teacher of the Arabic language before turning to studying law and working in the judiciary. She became one of the few women judges in Morocco during the early decades and advanced to prestigious judicial positions. She also served as a member of the Royal Committee for the Revision of the Personal Status Code. She believed that the Family Code was enacted to protect families and women's rights, opposing its use of religion to hinder those rights. She received honors such as the Medal of the Throne and was recognized by Amnesty International for her excellence and independence, before retiring due to organizational issues and facing an illness that deprived her of mobility. Her passing has left a significant void in the Moroccan human rights field.
