A Moroccan appeals court on Tuesday sentenced journalist Ali Lmrabet to three years in jail and backed a previous court order shutting down his two satirical publications on charges of insulting the king, judicial sources said.
Lmrabet, who has been on a hunger strike since May 6, was originally sentenced to a four-year prison term almost a month ago for insulting King Mohammed VI and offending the monarchy and Morocco's territorial integrity.
