| 2014-01-07 |
| [MAGHAREBIA] A Casablanca court prosecutor opened an investigation into a salafist imam, MAP reported on Sunday (January 5th). Abdelhamid Abou Naïm posted a YouTube video in which he accused politician Driss Lachgar of "apostasy" for calling on Morocco to ban polygamy. Lachgar, head of the opposition Socialist Union of Popular Forces, called for the ban several days ago. He also urged a debate on the share of women's inheritance, which is half what men receive on the death of a relative, AFP reported. |
