The Embassy of Morocco in Moscow on Wednesday denied the authenticity of a publication attributed to it concerning the student community in the city of Saratov. «The Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco in Moscow wishes to draw the attention of the Moroccan community residing in the Russian Federation to a false document attributed to the Embassy and currently circulating on social networks», the diplomatic mission said in a statement. «The so-called publication concerning the Moroccan student community in the city of Saratov is a fake document», it added. The fake document attributed to the embassy, dated May 17, referred to the issuance of several search and arrest warrants against students by the authorities of the city of Saratov in connection with fraud and swindling cases. This false document claimed that the embassy called on the Moroccan student community to exercise restraint and announced that the Russian authorities had the right to arrest the students and expel them from the country without referring to the Kingdom's diplomatic mission.
