Rabat- Following the murder of an illegal immigrant from Senegal by a Moroccan citizen in Tangier, several social media activists in Senegal have reportedly called for revenge killings of Moroccans living in Senegal.
Last week, a Senegalese national was killed after being stabbed in the neck in a fight that broke out between sub-Saharan African immigrants and dozens of Moroccans.
According to Hespress, a FaceBook activist from Senegal said that they should apply the “Talion law principle,” an eye-for-an-eye, and kill a Moroccan living in Senegal, just as the Senegalese immigrant was killed in Tangier.
“Simply speaking, a Moroccan resident in Senegal should be killed,” a Senegalese activist wrote on his FaceBook account. Another FaceBook user said that Senegalese people should apply the Talion law, stressing that it would be very easy to find a Moroccan in Senegal and to behead him.
Another Senegalese social media activist went so far as to claim that Moroccans are Africa’s enemies. ‘’Moroccans exploit Senegalese people in Senegal, not just in Morocco,” he wrote.
