Marrakech Court Issues Sentence Against Influencer Kalamour
On August 17, 2026, the Marrakech Primary Court delivered a significant ruling, sentencing the well-known content creator, commonly referred to as "Kalamour," to a term of ten months in prison and imposing a fine of 500 dirhams. Furthermore, the court has barred her from utilizing social media platforms for a period of three years, following her conviction on charges related to public indecency. This legal decision came quickly after the initial proceedings of her trial, during which she was detained and remanded in local custody at the Aoudaya prison.
The prosecution took action against Kalamour based on her dissemination of content that was deemed inappropriate and in violation of public morals, particularly due to the circulation of videos and excerpts from a live broadcast that raised concerns regarding public decency. This ruling is significant in the context of the ongoing discussions about online content regulation and the responsibilities of influencers in the digital age.
The national security forces apprehended Kalamour at Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca while she was attempting to leave the country. This operation was conducted in coordination with the Marrakech security services, leading to her subsequent judicial inquiry and eventual referral to the public prosecutor's office, which decided to pursue charges while keeping her in custody.
This ruling from the Marrakech court reflects the legal framework surrounding acts attributed to Kalamour, establishing the penalties as mandated by law, which encompass imprisonment, fines, and a prohibition from engaging in social media activities for the specified three-year duration.
