The Rafto Prize to Daddach gives legitimacy to Saharawi people’s struggle
A member of the Norwegian Support Committee for Western Sahara was arrested on April 5 by Moroccan security forces in the capital of Western Sahara, l’Ayoune, and deported to the neighbouring country of Mauritania. He was in the Moroccan occupied territory to interview human rights activists and former political prisoners, among them Sidi Mohammed Daddach, who two years ago was awarded the Rafto Prize for his lifelong struggle for an independent Western Sahara.(20-APR-2004)
