Mrs.
Dlamini, who was receiving the Saharawi human rights activist, Ali Salem
Tamek, expressed her "support to the Saharawi people’s heroic struggle for
the self-determination and independence", asserting that her "organisation
will mobilise in the continental and international forums to make the voice
of the Saharawi women heard".
On his
side Mr. Ali Salem Tamek explained to his interlocutor, in details, "the
crimes and serious human rights violations perpetrated daily against the
Saharawi citizens in the occupied territories, sometimes few meters from the
headquarters of the UN, which proved to be incapable to organise the
self-determination referendum to the benefit of the Saharawi people".
"Kids,
women and old persons are not spared and the most odious crimes were
committed against them" he said, stressing that "the Moroccan regime
relentlessly attacked the Saharawi women because they are the keepers of our
people’s traditional values, resistance and dignity".
"The
torturers of the Moroccan regime exercise rape on the Saharawi women, and I
witness here on what my own wife was subjected to by the Moroccan police so
as to break my own family and punish me for my political activities. This is
what happened to me but this crime is largely committed in the detention
centres by the criminals of the Moroccan regime and many Saharawis were
victim to it", he added. (SPS)
