Morocco: Letter to Minister of Justice Omar Azzimane concerning Ahmed Boukhari

Human Rights Watch wrote to express its great concern at the state’s treatment of retired police agent Ahmed Boukhari. In late June, Mr. Boukhari disclosed his version of the involvement of Moroccan security forces in systematic human rights violations against Moroccan citizens in the 1960s and 1970s, including the 1965 abduction, torture and murder of opposition leader Mehdi Ben Barka.
