US state Department 2008 Annual Report on Western sahara and Morocco:"International human rights groups and Sahrawi activists maintained that the Moroccan government subjected Sahrawis who were suspected of supporting either Western Saharan independence or the Polisario to various forms of surveillance, arbitrary arrest, prolonged detention, and in many cases."






Again, the US state Department annual Report of 2008 on w. Sahara and Morocco talks about: " Youths supporting independence were reportedly detained and mistreated. Activists claimed that they were regularly taken into custody, beaten, and released, generally within 24 hours, without being formally arrested or charged"

Morocco has been repeatedly criticised by international human rights organizations such as Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch[5] and the World Organization Against Torture, Freedom House, Reporters Without Borders, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and in 2006 in a report by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights for its actions in Western Sahara.
