Morocco urges investigation into death of national in Bologna
Morocco’s foreign ministry said it was concerned by the death of a national during a police arrest in Bologna in Italy and urged a “thorough investigation”.
Moroccan-born Abderrahim Fakir died on Sunday after police were called to the Pilastro neighborhood on the outskirts of the northern Italian city to deal with a man who was behaving aggressively and damaging a vehicle.
The Moroccan ministry called on Tuesday night for the necessary explanations regarding the death to be provided and for responsibility to be established.
The death triggered anti-police protests in Bologna on Monday that left dozens of officers injured.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni called for a full investigation into the death and also condemned the subsequent clashes with police. – Reuters
