The worker from Inezgane Ait Melloul, Ismail Abu Al-Haqouk, sent a letter on November 29, 2024 to the leader of the jihadist group Dashira, Ibrahim Dahmouche, concerning the decision to distribute the annual aid allocated to associations under the year 2024. This correspondence follows the group’s communication relating to the subject, registered under number 2777. November 20, 2024.
The decision to distribute the support caused widespread discontent among many of the group’s cultural, artistic and sporting associations, due to the method of selecting the associations receiving support. In a surprising move, Abu Al-Haqouk asked Al-Dahmush in correspondence to reconsider the support distribution process, after receiving numerous comments on its transparency and fairness.
The observations made by the regional authority included the need to follow a clear procedure in studying requests for support, while justifying the large differences between approved projects. The importance of requiring supported associations to submit a declaration to the Regional Accounts Council was also highlighted to ensure transparency and accountability.
Many civil society associations in Dashira had petitioned the group’s president, complaining that they had been excluded or received small amounts of money compared to other associations that had received significant support despite the lack of clarity in their activities.
What sparked the most anger was the provision of support to an association not affiliated with the Dashira group, which some called a blatant violation of established norms.
This situation has raised many questions about the integrity and transparency of the aid distribution process, leading many associations to demand a complete review of approved procedures, highlighting the need to subject these processes to careful monitoring to ensure justice among all.
