Moroccan couple charged with torturing their child-maid.
Published On 10 Nov 2009
A Moroccan judge has appeared in court accused of torturing his 11-year-old maid.
The trial of Khaled Alchuti has now been adjourned until Saturday.
Meanwhile, Alchuti’s wife has been sentenced to three and a half years in jail, a punishment that Moroccan human rights groups say is far too lenient for the crime.
