A Moroccan court has sentenced 11 persons to a maximum of 10 years in prison over terror-related charges. In another case, three convicts were sentenced three years, while four were given two years for “praising acts that constitute terrorism offences and glorifying a terror group,” the same source added. In 2015, Morocco adopted a new bill under the Law 86-14, posing stricter charges on praising terrorism. The law stipulates two to six years of prison for “praising acts that constitute terrorism offences” as well as “propaganda, praising, or promoting a terrorist or a terrorist group, gang, or entity”.
