Agadir (southern of Morocco),
12/12/2006 (SPS) Saharawi students in the Moroccan city of Agadir,
the political prisoners in the notorious Carcel Negra in El Aaiun,
Saharawi citizens in Bojador (Western Sahara), and in the cities of
Assa, Goulimine, Asrir and Zag (southern Morocco) expressed their
solidarity with the Saharawi civilians in the occupied cities of
Smara and El Aaiun, who are submitted to "a savage repression",
since Sunday, by the Moroccan forces of occupation after the
Saharawi population in the last two cities celebrated the
International Day for Human Rights.
"We
denounce all forms of savage repression to which our families are
subjected by the Moroccan services", the Saharawi students in Agadir
wrote in a press release, of which SPS received a copy.
They also expressed their solidarity and unconditional support to
the Saharawi citizens in the occupied territories of the Western
Sahara and in the South of morocco, who are peacefully advocating
Saharawi people-s right to self-determination and independence. They
further asked the Moroccan State to lift the state of siege imposed
on the territory since 1975.
In the occupied city of Bojador, the Bureau of the Saharawi
Association of the Victims of the Flagrant Human Rights Violations
Committed by the Moroccan State (ASVDH) energetically condemned this
"violent intervention" against the Saharawi civilians, especially
the Saharawi human rights activists who were the first targeted by
the Moroccan forces.
Meanwhile, the Saharawi citizens of Assa, Goulimine, Asrir and Zag
organised demonstrations to celebrate the International Day for
Human Rights, and to express their solidarity with the Saharawi
political prisoner and asked for their immediate release. (SPS)
