The Arrest of a Sahrawi political prisdner’s sister in El Aaiun,
Western Sahara
On July 13, 2007 in the very early morning, the Moroccan police
arrested the young Sahrawi girl, Minatou Amidane, nicknamed Mallak, in
front of her familiy’s house in Al Inaach district in El Aaiun, Western
Sahara.
The reason behind her arrest is mainly her active participation in the
peaceful demonstrations in which the Polisario leflets were
distributed and flags brandished, and in other occasions calling
for the release of the Saharwi political prisoners in the Moroccan
prisons and the respect of human rights in the Western Sahara, south of
Morocco and at the university centers..
Although her family went to the police station, they could not know
anything about her. The family asserts that she was abducted in front
their house at 24:00 by some police agents headed by the officials Ichi
Aboulhassan and Moustapha Kammour, who took her in a police car to an
unknown place.
Minatou (Mallak) Amidane was born in 1983 in El Aaiun, and she is the
sister of the Sahrawi political prisoner, Elwali Amidane, who is still
in custody and was sentenced to 5 years imprisonment in the Court of
Appeal in El Aaiun.
Mallak was arrested in different occasions for her participation in the
demonstrations and sit-ins calling for the Sahrawi people’s right to
self-determination and independence. The whole family has been
suffering from continuous Moroccan harrassment, mainly arrests,
torture and the burst into their house. .
