The Saharawi Women express their condemnation to the attitude of the moroccan police at the L´Aayoune´s Airport when the Member of the European Parliament, Mr. willy Meyer, was going to visit the occupied Western saharan capital.
The European Parliament Member was beaten and pushed by moroccan police last Sunday, October 31st, when they banished him from the airport in the Western Sahara´s capital, ilegally occupided by the Kingdom of Morocco since 36 year ago.
Mr. Meyer was on his way to Western Sahara to investigate the human rights situation in the capital El Aaiun and those of Morocco, the occupied territories of Western Sahara. Moroccan police met him on the stairs of the plane where they forbade him entrance into the country. In opposition, he sat down passively resisting their orders, where the police beat and push him.
Willy Meyer fell finally to the ground where he struck his neck and his wrists, reported the Spanish newspaper El Mundo Monday.
"I feel I have fallen off a horse. If this is what they do against an MP, imagine what they are doing to the Saharawi people," he told to the spanish newspaper El Mundo.
After the episode, Willy Meyer flew back to Gran Canaria where he came from. There he stated that he would lodge a complaint with the Spanish foreign ministry and try to get Morocco to a Spanish court for police violence at the airport.

Saharawi Women launch an urgent appeal to the international community to put pressure on the moroccan government to stop its policy of repressión against not only the peaceful saharawi people in the occupied cities but also the international visiters who investigates the great violations of human rights perpetrated by the moroccan army in Western Sahara.
