The local prison administration in Khouribga, Morocco, has officially denied allegations of mistreatment against an inmate, according to a statement released on Thursday, July 30, 2026, by the Delegation General for Prison Administration (DGAP). The denial comes after accusations were made regarding the treatment of a detainee at the facility.
The statement clarified that the inmate received appropriate medical care and that all procedures followed legal standards. The DGAP emphasized that the prison staff acted in accordance with regulations and that any claims of violence are unfounded.
This incident highlights ongoing scrutiny of prison conditions in Morocco, though the authorities maintain their commitment to respecting detainees' rights. The DGAP also noted that an internal investigation has been opened to ensure transparency, but no evidence of misconduct has been found so far.
The case has drawn attention from human rights organizations, but the prison administration urges the public to rely on official information rather than unverified allegations.
