Senegal Fans’ Trial in Morocco Postponed Again

The appeal hearing involving Senegalese supporters detained in Morocco has been delayed once more, with the court fixing April 13 as the new date for proceedings.

The case was expected to continue as scheduled, but the presiding judge ordered an adjournment, causing another setback in the trial.

The supporters have been held in custody since January following incidents of disorder during the final match between Morocco and Senegal.

Efforts by the Government of Senegal, which put together a legal team to defend the fans, have yet to yield progress, as the case continues to face repeated delays, raising concerns about how long the supporters have remained in detention.
