Mr.
Bouamoud was arrested in front of his house and was "brutally" tortured in
public by agents of the Moroccan police because of the T-shirt he was
wearing illustrating the Intifada of Independence, the press release
stressed.
Many
Moroccan police cars, under the commandment of the famous Moroccan torturer,
Ichi Aboulhassan, and his assistant Mustafa, closed the street of Sidi
Mohamed Dadach, where Mr. Bouamoud lives, to prevent the Saharawi citizens
from protesting against this "barbarous act", it was indicated.
The
ex-political prisoner was led to a police station where he was submitted to
torture and interrogatories, "though the fact of wearing a T-shirt
glorifying the Intifada is not a violation to the international laws nor to
the Moroccan ones", the text regretted.
"This kind
of oppression, violations of freedom, physical tortures against the Saharawi
citizens, especially human rights activists and ex-political detainees, is a
strategy adopted by the Moroccan repressive forces to put constraints on
freedoms in the Western Sahara", the ASVDH regretted in its press release.
On another
hand, the ASVDH reported other aggressions perpetrated by Moroccan police
agents against other Saharawi political prisoners, mainly El Hafed Toubali,
El Gasmi Mohamed Lehbib, Ahmeidat Mohamed Salem and El-Loumadi Abdeslam
during their transportation from the notorious Carcel Negra towards the
Moroccan colonial court in El Aaiun where they were presented on Tuesday.
In this
respect, the Saharawi political prisoners incarcerated in the notorious
Carcela Negra launched an "urgent" appeal to human rights organisations and
associations as well as the democratic forces around the world, to "put an
end to the gross human rights violations perpetrated by the Moroccan State",
the prisoners are submitted to in the Moroccan prisons.
