This fifty people, among whom are about 30 women, 10 or 12 children and other men of different ages have four days in the area known as Kandahar, a desert strip of land about 8 miles separates the military posts in Morocco and Mauritania. Only one person has got out of there and into Mauritania to have roles in this country, the sources said.

The sources explained that for unknown reasons which have led to the expulsion, but the orders have come directly from Rabat. In the same
area have appeared on several occasions groups of black Africans who had been intercepted by Morocco and expelled to the border area.
