quote:

In August, 2006. a gay pride celebration is planned to feature in Tetouan.
This is arousing tension among Moroccans[citation needed].
The conference is supposed to bring gay people from all over Morocco.

someone who knows what happened then should change this paragraph

[edit] What the hell......

I have never seen a single homosexual in my life (expect on TV & the net)

If there are homosexuals here, they must be tourists, not Moroccans.

I've seen many (not to say alot) Saber :) -- FayssalF - Wiki me up ® 21:53, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Where? I know there probably are, but are not open about it. They won't go and tell you they're gay, unless you're in some place full of non-Muslims. -- Sabertooth 12:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Just last year, there's was a wedding of 2 gays in Tétouan. The police cracked down but leter on everybody was released. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up ® 14:08, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Which only means the cops got their $20. Who gives a flip about law in this country. -- Sabertooth 23:36, 18 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Homosexuality is punished by up to ?

Original French version: (which one is actual?)

L’article 489 “Est puni de l’emprisonnement de trois à six ans et d’une amende de 200 à 1000 dirhams, quiconque commet un acte impudique ou contre-nature avec un individu de son sexe.”

L’article 489 Attentats aux mœurs Est puni de l'emprisonnement de six mois à trois ans et d'une amende de 120 à 1.000 dirhams, à moins que le fait ne constitue une infraction plus grave, quiconque commet un acte impudique ou contre nature avec un individu de son sexe.
