المغرب: عسكري متقاعد يحرق نفسه امام مقر اقامة بنكيران

Morocco – A man sat fire at himself in front of the Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane residence in Lemon neighborhood center of the capital Rabat.

The man, who is in his fifties, approached  from the residence of the prime minister, and splashed his body with a flammable substance and started screaming in hysterical protest at what he called the injustice he suffered, and got lighter to set fire to his clothes.

Official guard intervention helped save the man, who turned out to be a military retiree, and was taken to the hospital as he suffered second degree burns in his hands and back.
