Rabat – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation has dispatched an inspection mission to the Moroccan embassy in Antananarivo on Monday following “cross-checked” information on acts of former Morocco’s ambassador to Madagascar, Mohammed Amar.
The decision to dispatch the mission, which also includes members of the General Inspectorate of Finance, “is based on cross-checked information that the former ambassador to Madagascar allegedly misappropriated funds, on the occasion of humanitarian operations in favor of the Madagascan people”, the ministry pointed out in a statement.
The ambassador, who held this post since 2006, also allegedly made “acts of interference in the country’s internal affairs, in violation of diplomatic practices and in contradiction with the Moroccan diplomatic tradition”, the statement added.
The former Moroccan ambassador to Madagascar also reportedly “discriminated against the non-Muslim communities of the country, without respecting the ethnic and religious diversity of Madagascar, nor the values of openness and tolerance advocated by the Muslim religion and promoted by HM King Mohammed VI, Commander of the Faithful”, according to the same source.
