Young Moroccan set himself on fire to protest against his dismissed from army
Morocco - Arab Maghreb independent press service - A 26-year-old man died in central Morocco after setting himself on fire in despair at his situation since being dismissed from the army, a local rights official said Saturday.
“He poured five liters of petrol over himself and set himself alight in the weekly market at Benguerir,” Mohammed Hanofi of the Moroccan Human Rights Association told Thursday AFP.
“He died in hospital,” he added
The daily Akhbar al-Yaoum named the man as Mourad Raho, 26, while a local website, Rhamna.org, said he was depressed because he had little income since being sacked from the army in July 2010.
