Rabat, Morocco (TMT)- The Moroccan Minister of Human Rights and Personal Liberties Mustapha Ramid took to Facebook to deny claims that he was the one behind leaking the controversial and surreal draft-law 20.22, an authoritarian draft law that aims to muzzle Moroccans on social media platforms and suppress any boycott movement or criticism of products and services in the kingdom, among others.

The Moroccan Minister of Human Rights and Personal Liberties, “while stressing that the draft law, as well as the document he addressed to the Head of Government containing his remarks on the draft law, are not confidential, he categorically denies their leaking or the leaking of any document of any kind, and regrets such accusations,” Ramid said in a post written in Arabic on his official Facebook page.

Ramid also stressed that people who made such accusations “did not spare themselves the lowest effort in terms of investigating the claims by contacting him to verify the claims.”
