Bachir Ben Barka

Bachir Ben Barka is the son of Mehdi Ben Barka, a prominent Moroccan anti-colonial activist who disappeared in 1965. Recently, he was in the news for being interviewed by a magistrate in Paris regarding the long-standing investigation into his father's mysterious abduction and presumed murder, which remains one of France's oldest unresolved cases. Bachir has been a vocal advocate for justice and accountability, expressing frustration over the slow progress of the investigation and the lack of cooperation from the Moroccan authorities.
