The support committee for Moroccan feminist activist Ibtissam Lachkar, who is imprisoned on charges of “insulting the Islamic religion,” warned Thursday of the “deterioration” of her health condition, which requires surgical intervention. The fifty-year-old activist, known for her defense of individual freedoms and women's rights, was arrested last summer due to a photo she posted on social media platforms in which she appears in a T-shirt with the word "Allah" written in Arabic, followed by a phrase in English that says "Is Lesbian" (she is a lesbian).
