Biography

[edit]

Sinaceur was born in eastern Morocco at Oujda. He is a member of a well connected Moroccan family[according to whom?]. His brother Mohammed Allal Sinaceur is a writer working for UNESCO[1] and another, Jamal Eddine Sinaceur, is a diplomat.

Sinaceur died in 2000 and in 2009 a street was named after him in Casablanca. The naming event was seen as a tribute to Sinaceur and his family. His work in human rights, support for education and being a champion for Casablanca was given as reasons for the honour.[2]
