Morocco
The Kingdom of Morocco is considered a religiously tolerant state. Foreign religious communities can practice their non-Muslim faith openly. The situation is different for Moroccan Christians, however. Family and social pressure on »apostate« Muslims extends to expulsion from their families, disinheritance or withdrawal of custody rights. In addition, law makes proselytizing among Muslims a punishable offense.
