Rabat –Two Moroccan Jewish families from Casablanca made an appeal to King Mohammed VI, asking him to protect them from their landlord who is threatening to evict them from the “apartments they have lived in for 50 years.”
In a video posted on YouTube, a man named Shalom Abdelhak calls on King Mohammed VI to protect him from his landlord’s threats.
Speaking in Moroccan dialect, he said, “we are appealing to the help of Mohamed VI,” adding that he and his wife being victimized by a “group” that threatens to evict them from their apartment at Rue Jackman in Anfa (now called Dijla) in Casablanca.
Shalom said he has been living in this apartment for over 46 years.
Throughout this period, he said he has been paying his rent on a regular basis and never had any problems with the owners of the building.
But now a group of people has come to claim the building and force them out.
Viessmann Mobidy, Shalom’s wife, expressed her concerns over this issue that, according to her, started in 2012.
‘I am scared that they will force us to live on the street,” she said.
The two Jewish families hope that the king will interfere to protect them from what they call “a group of mafia.”
