| A protester holds the flag of the Rif Republic as protesters shout slogans in the northern city of Al Hoceima on October 30, 2016, following the death of fishmonger Mouhcine Fikri, who was crushed to death on 28 October in a rubbish truck in Al Hoceima |
"Grind him." These were the two words pronounced by a Moroccan state official who had just confiscated a fish from Mohsin Fikri, an Al-Hoceima fish vendor, and thrown it in a garbage truck. Mohsin desperately climbed into the back of the truck to retrieve his fish. It was at that moment that witnesses report hearing those chilling words.
Mohsin Fikri died almost immediately. All of it was recorded on video and the horrific image of his head peeping from the bottom of the garbage truck press shocked the entire country. Unlike the assassination of five al-Hoceima protestors, thrown into a bank that was deliberately set on fire in 2011, the images of Mohsin could not be refuted by the state.
