I have posted before about the Polisario and the way they have kept their own people as virtual hostages by demanding autonomy for a region that according to every credible expert has no future as an economic entity. Today the Morocco Times has a lengthy article about the fate of Lamani Abdellah a prisoner of the Polisario for twenty-three years.
Lamani Abdellah before he was kidnapped (1980) and after he was released (2003)Lamani is one of the many prisoners who were either caught up or kidnapped during the Sahara war opposing Morocco to the Algeria-backed Polisario Front. He says in the Morocco Times interview that the Polisario has committed the most horrific kinds of violations of human rights against the Moroccan prisoners in the Tindouf camps, southern Algeria. This, of course is not new information as there have been frequent reports of Polisario attroicities - but it is worth reading.
