The head of the Council of Europe’s office in Morocco, Carmen Morte Gomez, confirmed that the entry into force of Law No. 43.22 on alternative penalties next August represents a “historic turning point” in the path of reforming the Moroccan judicial system.
Morty Gomez’s statement came today, Wednesday, in the city of Harhoura, during the opening of two days of studies organized by the Public Prosecution Office in partnership with the Council of Europe, and with the contribution of the General Delegation for Prison Administration, to discuss the mechanisms for activating this new law.
The law is part of a trend aimed at establishing restorative justice and enhancing the social integration of convicts. It is also expected to contribute to alleviating overcrowding within prison institutions and reducing recidivism rates, through effective alternatives to custodial punishments.
The European official stressed that the text embodies Morocco’s commitment to its constitution, especially with regard to the protection of human rights and dignity, calling for providing the necessary resources and ensuring coordination between the various concerned parties to implement it effectively.
The meeting, which is attended by judges, judicial and executive officials, and experts from Morocco and the Council of Europe, addresses the legal and regulatory aspects of alternative sanctions, and aims to raise awareness among judicial actors of their roles in activating the requirements of the law, with the aim of its official launch on August 22, 2025.
