On Thursday, the Moroccan National Police summoned the head of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, Aziz Ghali, to hear him regarding a complaint previously filed by the association regarding “blood contaminated with HIV” injected into patients in the city of Casablanca.
Ghali revealed that the Moroccan Association for Human Rights obtained the file of the “tainted blood” case in mid-June 2023, although the case dates back to mid-2019.
According to Moroccan reports, a person donated his blood in 2019 in a center in Casablanca, and the tests showed that he was infected with the AIDS virus (AIDS), but something went wrong, and it caused the blood to be distributed to some clinics, and it was injected to two people, according to the accusations.
According to Aziz Ghali, what happened came to the knowledge of the Minister of Health at the time, who ordered the file to be closed, according to the accusations of the president of the association.
site transferset infoAl-Maghrabi, on the authority of Ghali, said that the file is dangerous, and the association had to file a complaint in the matter with the competent authorities, given that the case affects the lives of innocent people, especially since there is a possibility that two women may be infected with the AIDS virus.
Aziz Ghali, president of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, wrote in a blog post, “15 days after placing the complaint of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights regarding contaminated blood, the National Division is moving to hear the statement of the association regarding its complaint. This file must go to its fullest extent to find out the truth because Moroccan health is not a game.”
The Ministry of Health denied the accusations of the head of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, and Hisham Rahil, the chief of staff of the Minister of Health and Social Protection, was surprised at radio programme Magrabi made the statements of the President of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, indicating that he did not reveal the author of the report that was completed on contaminated blood in July 2019.
The head of the office of the Minister of Health and Social Protection warned that such statements “sow discord in society,” calling for the disclosure of the authority that prepared a report that there is blood contaminated with AIDS, which has spread in large hospitals in Morocco.
Moroccans considered the accusations serious and required an important investigation by the authorities. Moroccan political analyst Omar Cherkaoui wrote on Facebook that what Aziz Ghali, head of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, said about the presence of AIDS-infected blood that was transferred to a person or persons is dangerous and cannot be tolerated.
The Moroccan police did not reveal the exact reason for summoning the head of the Moroccan Association for Human Rights, but local media linked him to what he said about the “mistake” incident in a “blood” center and the injection of people with AIDS-contaminated blood.
