Moroccan Woman Freed After 3.5 Year Jail Sentence For Insulting Islam

On June 28th, Ikram Nazih, a Moroccan-Italian woman, was sentenced to three and a half years in prison and a hefty fine for allegedly insulting Islam via Facebook posts she made long before her trip to Morroco. In April 2019, she posted Arabic phrases about whisky that looked like verses from the Quran. She did this “without knowing the content,” explained her father, who also emphasized her lack of fluency in Arabic. Her arrest gained attention online, with her defenders criticizing the Morrocan government for attacking individuals who want to express their intellectual criticisms. Vincenzo Amendola, Italy's Minister of European Affairs, headed the team that handled the diplomatic mission for Nazih's release. Amendola visited her every week while in detention, and under his supervision Italian officials were in constant communication with their Morrocan counterparts negotiating for the release. Nazih was released, after being detained for more than two months, while waiting for her trial scheduled for August 30th.
