Chahid Al Hafed (refugee camps), Nov 26, 2014 (SPS) - The National Commission for Human Rights on Tuesday voiced “deep concern” at the convening of an international forum on human rights in a country like Morocco, which still occupies by force the territory of Western Sahara.


In statement a copy of which obtained by SPS, the Commission urged the participants at the 2nd annual World Human Rights Forum, to be held in Marrakech (Morocco), to refrain from taking part at such a forum being manipulated by autocratic monarchical regime, which lately renewed scandalous disregard to international legitimacy and to the obligations he made to the international community in conducting a self-determination referendum for the Saharawi people.


The Commission underlined that Morocco is currently preoccupied with burnishing its image abroad through distorting facts, clearly documented in the reports of international right organizations and bodies.


The Commission sent an urgent appeal to the national and international human rights bodies as well as civil society organizations not to get involved in burnishing the image of Moroccan regime, and thus stop contributing to justify its continuous violations and illegal occupation of Western Sahara.


It, on other hand, said that the Saharawi people are subject to the ugliest methods of blatant violations of human rights, of which abduction, arbitrary arrest, mock trials, torture, and assassination, let alone the suppression of freedoms being committed by Morocco in the occupied territories of Western Sahara.
