A Moroccan appeals court has confirmed the prison sentences for 18 Senegalese football fans, finalizing a case stemming from violent incidents in Rabat. The supporters were originally convicted in late 2025 on charges including violence against public officials, vandalism, and participation in an armed gathering.
The court upheld sentences ranging from several months to two years in prison. The convictions are linked to clashes that occurred around a football match, where fans were accused of causing significant property damage and confronting security forces.
Legal proceedings concluded that the group's actions constituted a threat to public order. The verdict is now final, with no further avenue for appeal within the Moroccan judicial system for these specific charges.
