A French-Algerian influencer has been jailed for one year after she posted a video criticising Moroccans while on holiday in the country. Yass Naubelle, 30, was intercepted by Moroccan border officials on June 13 and placed in police custody moments before she was set to board her flight home to France.

The video gained attention on TikTok and prompted a national arrest warrantMr Rushton, a carer, had filmed himself handing out basic supplies to local children in Marrakech using money he had raised through social media.He felt he had to help after seeing the youngsters begging on the streets – and went to buy essentials such as nappies and milk to distribute to families in need.However, Mr Rushton was apprehended after authorities discovered he had filmed the moment, accusing him of ‘bringing shame’ on the country and recording children without their consent.He spent an evening behind bars before being released, but remained on tenterhooks in Morocco – where he said English is not widely spoken – for over a week after officers confiscated his belongings.Only after an urgent appeal by his mother, Rachael Rushton, Mr Rushton was able to return to Britain.
