The Sahrawi Group for Human Rights Defence (CSDDH) launched on Monday from Geneva, which was holding the 7th session of the Human Rights Council, an urgent appeal to the UN Secretary General and the international community to intervene in order to put an end to human rights violations by "Polisario", whose victims are sequestered in the Tindouf camps (southwestern Algeria).

The National Security chief, Mr. Charki Draiss, received Thursday in Rabat, a delegation composed of nine representatives of the inhabitants of the province of Tan Tan, including members of the Royal Advisory Council for Saharan Affairs (CORCAS), parliamentarians and local officials, who presented their heartfelt condolences following the assassination of policeman Abdelaziz Meski "Polisario" separatists in Tan Tan. 

Morocco's ambassador to the UN Geneva office, Mohammed Loulichki, insisted that the population in the Tindouf camps (southwestern Algeria) is indeed held, by Polisario, against its will.

Morocco cannot keep silent about the precarious and inhuman conditions in which scores of Moroccan Sahrawis, held against their will in the Polisario-run Tindouf camps, southwest Algeria, are kept, a situation that compels a good number of them to defy all dangers to return home, Visiting Minister of Justice Abdelouahed Radi said on Monday.

The return to Morocco of a hundred Sahrawis, who participated last December in Gjijimat congress near Tifariti, is a logical consequence of a long dissidence process within Polisario since its creation and glimmer of hope prompted by the Moroccan autonomy initiative among the sequestered people in the Tindouf camps.
