The Court of Appeal in Agadir acquitted a teacher accused of sexual harassment against a minor student in Tiznit, nullifying the initial judgment against him.
The primary criminal chamber had sentenced the teacher to five years in prison based on a complaint filed by the student’s father, but the appellate court overturned all charges due to insufficient evidence.
Throughout the trial, the teacher maintained his innocence, even while suffering a health setback, expressing confidence in the integrity of the judiciary.
According to testimonials from his family and professional circle, the teacher is known for his good reputation and upright conduct within the educational institution and the community where he resides.
