Second-in-power only to the king, General Oufkir is both hated and adored by the people of Morocco. After a failed coup d’ état, however, he is killed, and the lives of his wife and six children are changed forever. His older daughter, Malika Oufkir, survived a desert jail for two decades as one of the “disappeared,” along with her family. This is her story.
We’re also taking a look at child marriages, prevalent worldwide — including here in The States — for our theme of the week. Who allows it, and who is this ancient custom hurting?

I cannot believe an entire family went through all of that because of their father and survived it all. A lot was hard to hear because your imagination gets involved picturing what this family was going through. Awesome survival story.
We agree 100%! Just amazing!
