Rabat, Morocco (TMT)- The general secretary office of Morocco’s Justice and Development party (PJD) has suspended an array of politicians who built local coalitions in Ouazzane, Marrakesh, Sidi Kassem and Laarach with members of the party of Modernity and Authenticity (PAM), blatantly disregarding the order of the PJD’s general secretary of not making any coalition with the PAM, a party deemed by mainstream Moroccans as very close to the Makhzen.
