Q: would you please describe the situation around you?
A: The Moroccan troops are still holding sway on the streets and other paths that lead to my house and stiffened security all around impeaching my neighbors to come to see me. They are forced to show their identity cards to prove that they live nearby my house.
Q: What about media, did they succeed to approach you?
A: Journalists are not allowed to talk to me except those who were present on my arrival Friday early morning, but when declarations, concerning my denial of the allegations that I have officially apologized to the king and that I recognized my Moroccan nationality leaked, the Moroccan authorities ordered their security forces to tighten the rope. Journalist couldnt get in touch with me except through phone calls.
Q: Whats the link between your return to Al Ayoun and the apology to the Moroccan King?
A: I have denied these allegations; I didnt accept any conditions since there arent any and no apology to any party whatsoever.
Q: Did you think of death while going on hunger strike?
A: we are doomed to die one day or another, but one cannot live without dignity. I have given my youth and life to my people and this part of my struggle.
Q: Is it true that the French president Nicholas Sarkozy was behind your return?
A: I cannot assert that Sarkozys intervention weighed in the balance, but what is certain is that the American and European pressure on Morocco and even France has forced the Moroccan side to yield and accept my return
