Association of Sahrawi Journalists and Writers in Europe condemns unfair sentence against Sahrawi media activist

Submitted on

Madrid, 18 May 2020 (SPS) - The Association of Sahrawi Journalists and Writers in Europe has condemned the unfair sentence issued by the so-called Court of Appeal of the Moroccan occupation against Sahrawi media activist, Khatri Faraji Bujama, of 20 years imprisonment, because of his political positions in favour of independence of Western Sahara and the self-determination of the Saharan people.
The Association considered the sentence against the Sahrawi media activist a crime committed by the Moroccan occupation, in order to continue its practices aimed at intimidating Sahrawis and silencing their voices.
Finally, the Association called on the international organizations to take urgent action to demand the release of Sahrawi media activist, Khatri Faraji Bujama, and all Sahrawi political prisoners in the Moroccan jails. (SPS)
