Heba Press – Marrakech
Today, Monday, Marrakech’s security authorities arrested Algerian political activist Rashid Nakaz, after having published a misleading video in front of the Koutoubia mosque, in which he wrongly said that the mosque returned to Algeria. These declarations have aroused generalized dissatisfaction in Morocco, where an attempt to distortion the historical facts linked to one of the most important Moroccan monuments was envisaged.
Rashid Nkaz is known for his controversial positions and declarations, because he previously fought several political battles in Algeria, whether by trying to present himself in the presidential elections or through his anti-record positions. He is also famous for his exciting initiative to pay the fines of women who wear the niqab in Europe, in particular in France and Belgium.
Learned, Nkaz faced several suites in his country, because the Casablanca Criminal Tribunal (Algeria) in December 2021 pronounced a prison sentence of one year with a fine, in an attempt to prevent citizens from voting. In July 2022, another sentence of five years in prison was issued against him for incitement to unarmed rally and obstructing the electoral process.
The Silo of Koutoubia is one of the most important historic monuments in Morocco and was built in the 12th century at the time of the state of Almohad. The silo is characterized by its unique design, which looks like Hassan silos in Rabat and Al -khairda in Seville, an architectural masterpiece that embodies the originality of Islamic art in the Maghreb.
Koutoubia is a symbol of Moroccan identity, because it testifies to the ancient history of Marrakech and its role as political and cultural capital of Morocco in many periods. Consequently, all attempts to observe its identity or its lineage other than Morocco are encountered with large carefree by Moroccans.
To this comes the arrest of Rashid Nakaz in the context of Moroccan efforts to combat attempts to distortion history and to manipulate heritage data, in particular in the light of political and regional tensions between Morocco and Algeria. The authorities are continuing their investigations to reveal its motivations and parties which can be at the origin of these allegations, while emphasizing the protection of the cultural and historical heritage of the kingdom of any attempt to mislead or to distort.
