A group of residents who purchased apartments in the 'Perla Blanca' housing project, located on the Azla road in the outskirts of Tetouan, Morocco, staged a protest on Saturday. They expressed frustration over the project's continued delay and demanded a resolution to their situation. The protesters chanted slogans, including "Today or tomorrow, a solution is a must" and "We want our rights, we want our money."

The protesters held up banners highlighting their plight and called on authorities to intervene urgently to reveal the project's status and find a solution that preserves their rights. They demanded either allocation of the apartments or refund of their payments. This protest comes amid escalating actions by the residents, who had previously filed complaints with relevant authorities.

The complaints sought an investigation into the project's circumstances and assignment of responsibilities to ensure protection of the residents' rights. The protest takes place as the case has taken a new turn, with the public prosecutor at the Tetouan primary court instructing the judicial police to open an investigation into the matter.

According to available information, the residents are seeking acceleration of their case, disclosure of the project's status, and a solution that addresses their concerns. They remain committed to their financial and real estate rights. The 'Perla Blanca' project has been stalled for an extended period, leaving residents in a state of limbo.

The protesters emphasized their determination to continue demanding their rights after waiting for a long time to receive the apartments they purchased. They called on authorities to take immediate action to address their concerns. The situation remains unresolved, with residents eagerly awaiting a response from the authorities.

The 'Perla Blanca' housing project was launched with great fanfare, but its progress has been hampered by various issues. Residents who invested significant amounts of money in the project are growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of progress. They are demanding a swift resolution to the impasse.

The authorities have yet to comment on the protest or the status of the 'Perla Blanca' project. The residents' demands for a resolution and compensation remain unaddressed, leaving the situation uncertain. The protesters vowed to continue their demonstrations until their demands are met.
