Senegalese supporters detained in Morocco will have to wait longer before learning their verdict

Their trial has been postponed until 12 February.

The hearing was initially scheduled for Thursday, 5 February 2026, in Rabat. However, it has been postponed again due to a strike by Moroccan lawyers. These supporters are being prosecuted for offences under common law, including violence against law enforcement officers and acts of vandalism.

Detained since the final of the 2025 African Cup of Nations between Morocco and Senegal, these supporters will have to wait longer to learn their fate. If the charges against them are proven, they face prison sentences under the Moroccan Penal Code.
