In the context of the popular denouncement, of the royal pardon of the Spanish criminal convicted for raping 11 Moroccan children, and after examination of the matter from a global perspective, by the free thought forum, the later declares to the people of Morocco and everywhere else:

Its support to the families of the victims and all Moroccans, and joins all free voices that had condemned the pardon, and considered it an insult to the dignity of Moroccan citizens.

The free thought forum also calls everyone to take their moral and political responsibility, and denunciates the declarations of the “Islamist” government attempting to justify that wrong decision, using lame pretexts deepen the insult inflicted upon the feelings of Moroccans, such as “national interest” and “diplomatic complement”.

The forum strongly condemns the savage repression of the demonstrators who took it to the streets to express their refusal of the aforementioned pardon, which goes against all national and international treaties and laws, granting them freedom of expression and difference.

N.B. It’s worth noting that the Free Thought Forum is a civil organization founded by Moroccan academics, intellectuals, artists, writers, professors, journalists, human rights activists, and lawyers to oppose tutelage and authoritarianism in all forms.
