Overview

• A Rabat court convicted Lachgar of attacking Islam and imposed a 30‑month prison term and a 50,000‑dirham fine, roughly €4,700 to €5,000.
• The case centers on a July 31 social media post showing her wearing a T‑shirt with the phrase “Allah is lesbian,” which the court deemed offensive to religion.
• Lachgar told the judge she meant no offense and argued the message was feminist protest, noting she had posted the image before without legal action.
• She was arrested after police visited her home in Casablanca and transferred her to Rabat, and she reported receiving death threats following the post.
• Her family says she has cancer in an arm and has faced isolation and delayed medical care in custody, while her lawyers contend the charges violate constitutional free‑speech protections.
