00:00Morocco has called on Italy to quickly carry out a field investigation into the death of Moroccan national Abdelrahim Fakir
00:07in Bologna,
00:07saying it wants all the circumstances surrounding the case to be established.
00:12In a statement released on Tuesday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan expatriates said it is following
00:20the case,
00:21with deep concern declaring that Moroccan authorities have asked the relevant Italian authorities to swiftly initiate a through-hour investigation,
00:30to shed full light on the circumstances of this death and to provide the necessary clarification regarding this tragedy.
00:36They have also called for accountability and the full application of the required legal measures and procedures.
00:44Moroccan authorities will continue to closely follow that issue as part of their ongoing commitment to protecting the interests of
00:51Moroccan expatriates.
00:52Firm instructions have been given in this regard to the relevant Embassy and Consulate General to monitor the development of
00:59this case.
01:06In this context, Italy's Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini addressed the demands,
01:12assuring the situation will be clarified while claiming people are fueling a climate of hatred and defending the actions of
01:19the local police.
01:23Everything is recorded, listened to, documented, and just as happens on trains, where this has led to a reduction in
01:29assaults, thefts and robberies.
01:32It also happens thanks to the police and the carabinieri.
01:35I am convinced that in Bologna the situation will be clarified and that those who are calling for justice will
01:41get justice.
01:42It is unfortunate that even these days there are people who are fueling a climate of hatred.
01:46They are all away from the people who are punished, a lot of war, their own people, who have been
01:47created in their own fighting,
01:47they have beenhalted by themselves and said that and that they have been doing their own fighting.
