Regarding its history on serious violations of human rights, enforced disappearances, physical liquidations and other abuses against thousands of people in Tindouf camps, “Polisario” cannot claim to be a representative of Saharawis and their aspirations, "said Mostapha Al Barazani Bouh, former member of "Polisario" political bureau. 



Ultimately, "Polisario, which is just one caste reflecting illusions," he stressed during a meeting held Wednesday at the Palais des Nations with the press representatives accredited to the United Nations in Geneva. 
 
In a preliminary statement, Mr. Bouh, denounced the separatists double talk who hold equality rhetoric before the UN and international NGOs, but adopt, at a daily basis, in Tindouf camps, with impunity and with the blessing of the Algerian authorities, one-party and totalitarian practices against their victims, disarmed people who are deprived of everything.   

In addition to deprivation of all kinds, individual and collective violence, people held hostage in Tindouf suffer segregation under Machiavellian regime.

Slavery is commonplace and master-slave relations are widespread, he said adding that the victims of these practices, who are completely cut off from their families, do the harshest and most humiliating work.

These slaves, he added, keep the herds of "Polisario" leaders, without being paid, stressing that these herds are acquired through annuities from the diversion of a large part of humanitarian aid. 


Concerning the revelation of these slavery-like practices, last year in October by Australian journalists adopted by many Western and American media, Mr. Bouh Al Barazani, said that if Violeta Ayala and Daniel Fallshaw, the journalist investigators, had failed to deceive the vigilance of Polisario escorts, the phenomenon would have never been disclosed to international public opinion. 


"What is particularly shocking is the fact that this pseudo movement which claims to respect freedom values, equality, humanism and culture of human rights uses this practice," he said.

He cited the case of the young Soltana Bent Bilal who has filed a lawsuit in Spain against a senior "Polisario" officer for "hereditary slavery". After a stay organized in this country, the girl refused to return to the camps and went to a reception center in the city of Murcia, he said. 

During this conference, Mr. Al Barazani, gave an overview of the meetings of NGOs delegation and associations in the southern provinces which are currently in Geneva, within the framework of the 6th session of the Council on Human Rights, with senior representatives of humanitarian organizations and human rights. 

During those meetings, he said, the focus was on the humanitarian aspect of the Sahara conflict including the suffering of the populations sequestered in the Tindouf camps in Algeria, who wait for a solution to this artificial conflict, a solution that fails because of "Polisario" adjournment.
