Tangier 2 Local Prison Administration Slams 'Unfounded' Claims about Health of Detainee
Sunday 3 January 2021 - 18:08

The Tangier 2 Local Prison described as “unfounded” allegations posted by certain electronic sites concerning the health of a detainee, held in connection with the Al-Hoceima events.

In a statement, the prison administration emphasized that claims posted by certain websites, — quoting the sister of the detainee — alleging that prisoner (N. Z.) “has been suffering from a severe allergy for some time, which required him to take asthma medication and other drugs to treat the allergy that the doctor prescribed him, are unfounded.”

“Neither he nor any of his co-detainees informed the facility’s doctor or the nurse on duty on Thursday evening, December 31, 2020, that he was suffering from respiratory problems or that he had requested to take allergy medication,” according to the same source said.

The detainee N.Z. appeared before the institution’s medical staff on January 1, 2021, informing them that “he was feeling pain in his throat” due to “his allergy,” it added, stressing that appropriate medication was prescribed and given to the detainee on the spot.

The administration of the prison denounced “the actions of certain parties who continue to peddle unfounded facts for purposes that have nothing to do with reality.”

“These parties are trying to start the new year with a desperate attempt to draw attention to the case of these detainees, even by spreading untruths and made-up lies,” the statement concluded.
