Moroccan authorities denounce political instrumentalization of minor incident in Agadir bus station
Rabat, 4 Dec. 2008
- Moroccan authorities on Thursday denounced the political instrumentalization by separatists of a minor incident of aggressiveness and violence by a group of students from the southern provinces in the Agadir bus station to talk of "premeditated state murders".
This attitude is hardly surprising, for the distortion of truth is part and parcel of the traditions of the separatists and their backers who pounce on every occasion to disseminate, on the international scene, an image of a Morocco which does not respect human rights, an official source told MAP.
The testimonies of several road-users who were on the scene at the time of the incidents, actually affirmed that a group of students had aggressively asked to be embarked immediately to destinations of their choosing. Losing patience, they blocked access to the station, using stones, ordered the passengers on board to get down, and laid about every driver who dared to drive his bus.
Deploring the accidental death of two students, the same source condemned the fact that the separatists and their backers tend, contrary to ethics and morals, to instrumentalize a trivial incident.
Morocco, the same source went on, got the EU’s ISO certification for human rights, which enables it to challenge the separatists and their backers in this particular area.
The plans of attack against Morocco by the separatists and their backers are doomed to failure and the alerts they will launch internationally will elicit no response, the source said, pointing out that their plans will certainly boomerang as they themselves will be held accountable to the international community for human rights abuses, forced disappearances, the Guantanamos erected in the Algerian Sahara since the early 90s, long before the notorious American bay in Cuba, and the Gulags raised around the Tindouf camps for over three decades now.
An intensified anti-Moroccan campaign is to be expected, according to the same source, with December 10th, which celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, drawing near.
Ban Ki-moon’s office will receive piles of messages of “protest” from the so-called Mohamed Abdelaziz. This is known. Evidently enough, he will be supported by the Algerian print and audio-visual media, which defend the right of “a people”, whose leaders live on the embezzlement of international aid, as evidenced by various sources, including in Algeria, the same source concluded.
Commenting on this issue, communication minister and spokesman for the government, Khalid Naciri, said Thursday the government denounced the immoral instrumentalization, by the enemies of the kingdom’s territorial integrity, of human rights in Morocco, with the aim of impeding efforts of the international community to settle the Sahara issue.
The minister added, during a press briefing following the cabinet meeting, that these desperate attempts seek to hinder negotiations in a spirit of realism and compromise to reach a final solution to the regional conflict over the Moroccan Sahara, as called for by the United Nations.
