In the letter, which was received by MWN reads: “I, Bensalem Loukili, born in 02.16.1978 in the village of Kermat Bin Salem, Zerhoun, under national identification card N: DS 4473, took the decision to renounce the Moroccan nationality and the Moroccan state has to take this decision into account.”

Bensalem Alouakili said that he took this move “After a series of attacks, assaults and arbitrary arrests that I have been, and still subject to by the officials of this country, for no reason other than I asked the simplest human right – the right to work- enshrined in the Moroccan constitution and international conventions, and also because I stand firm against all the violations and oppressive practices exercised against me and other citizens…., I took the decision to abandon my nationality.”
