Aziz Ghali, president of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights (AMDH) announced that a complaint had been filed with the Public Prosecution against three Israeli diplomats in the Kingdom, following suspicions of sexual harassment of Moroccan women.

In a press statement, Ghali said that in view of what he called the government's silence regarding what happened, the association "chose to file a complaint with the Public Prosecution Office in Morocco in order to demand an investigation into the crimes committed and to arrange penalties."

He also pointed out that "four Moroccan female employees were harassed by three officials from the Zionist entity," adding that "these crimes amount to human trafficking."

In this context, Ghali renewed the association's refusal to open the Israeli liaison office in Morocco.

The Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported that on September 6, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned David Govrin, head of the liaison office in Morocco, due to suspicions of "sexual harassment and corruption." 

Dozens of demonstrators protested outside Morocco's parliament last Friday against the kingdom's normalization of ties with the Israeli occupation after the latter recalled its top envoy from Rabat in light of a probe, AFP reported.

The protesters chanted slogans denouncing the Moroccan-Israeli rapprochement, bashing the occupation's ambassador David Govrin and Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.

According to Israeli public broadcaster Kan, a foreign ministry delegation has been dispatched to Rabat in response to sexual abuse allegations against Israeli envoy Govrin.

Govrin, 59, was "Tel Aviv's" ambassador to Cairo before being named ambassador to Rabat last year.

According to an Israeli diplomatic source, Govrin is currently in “Israel” and is involved in the ongoing investigation.
