Reactions

The "moroccan outlaws"" campaign (Arabic: خارجة على القانون, French: Hors-la-loi), with the express goal of ending Article 490, began as a manifesto and petition during the trial of the Moroccan journalist Hajar Raissouni.[5] The movement was led by the filmmaker Sonia Terrab and the writer and French Francophone affairs minister Leïla Slimani.[5][6][7]
