The Humane Society of Morocco / Société Protectrice des Animaux du Maroc (HSM/SPA du Maroc) is pleased to announce that the Moroccan justice system has dismissed the case against its founder and president, Ali Izddine.
This decision confirms the baseless nature of the accusations brought against him, which sought only to harm his personal integrity and weaken our mission to protect animals in Morocco.
For several weeks, a disinformation campaign, orchestrated by certain institutional actors, attempted to discredit more than twenty years of recognized commitment to animal rights.
In this context, Ali Izddine was unjustly targeted as a whistleblower, denouncing the mass and systematic extermination of stray dogs in Morocco.
This harassment highlights the difficulty – and the necessity – of publicly exposing practices that run contrary to Morocco’s international commitments and to fundamental principles of dignity and humanity.
Despite these attacks, the HSM/SPA du Maroc remains fully committed to its mission:
Ending the massacres of stray dogs
Promoting humane and sustainable alternatives
Raising awareness of animal protection nationally and internationally
We extend our deepest gratitude to the associations, citizens, partners, and supporters who have stood firmly by our side during this ordeal.
Your mobilization demonstrates that the cause of animals is also a cause of justice, transparency, and respect for universal values.
This case represents more than the vindication of one individual: it should serve as an example to protect the integrity of animal rights defenders in the face of attempts to destabilize their work.
Now more than ever, the HSM/SPA du Maroc will continue its fight for life, dignity, and respect for all animals.
