Over 44,000 audio tapes and 5,000 cds seized in tangier
Morocco, Economics, 4/18/2003
The first instance court of Tangiers has ordered the seizure of 44,017 audio tapes and over 5,000 compact disks for non-conformity with the law on intellectual property and copyrights.
The Moroccan office of intellectual copyrights announced in a release that the illegal tapes and CDs were seized following a complaint lodged by the office and by professional organizations.
The seizure, part of a nationwide campaign against audio-visual piracy and counterfeiting, was to conform to notes issued by the interior and justice ministers to all the Moroccan governors.
The intellectual property office and trade unions are calling professionals to abide by the Moroccan laws and conventions signed by Morocco and see to the respect of the legal license-delivering procedure to protect the rights of creators and producers.
