ABSTRACT

Regular and irregular migrations to and from Morocco are discussed in Law n° 02–3. Some researchers and members of transnational organizations who have thoroughly discussed this are very critical for several reasons. Among them, Abdelkrim Belguendouz, in 2009, but not only then, underlined that Moroccan Parliament simply corrected the French edition that is at the origins of the Arabic text. In this paper the latter will be examined. In particular, Part II, where the legislator has foreseen the penal provisions to be imposed upon irregular migrants, migrant smugglers and other kinds of offenders supporting illegal migration.
