Mehdi Ben Barka (1920 – disappeared October 29, 1965; (アラビア語:المهدي بن بركة)) was a Moroccan politician, head of the left-wing National Union of Popular Forces (UNPF) and secretary of the Tricontinental Conference. An opponent of Hassan II, he "disappeared" in Paris in 1965. Despite countless theories attempting to explain what really happened to him, the exact circumstances of his disappearance have never been established, and as of 2009, investigations are ongoing.〔(France accused 44 years on over Moroccan's vanishing ) by Lizzy Davies, ''The Guardian'', October 29, 2009〕 == Background == Ben Barka was born in Rabat, Morocco to a civil servant, and became the first Moroccan Muslim to get a degree in mathematics in an official French school in 1950. He became a prominent member of the Moroccan opposition in the nationalist Istiqlal Party, but broke off after clashes with conservative opponents in 1959 to found the left-wing National Union of Popular Forces (UNFP). In 1962, Ben Barka was accused of plotting against King Hassan II. He was exiled from Morocco in 1963, after calling upon Moroccan soldiers to refuse to fight Algeria in the 1963 Sand War.〔Karen Farsoun and Jim Paul, "War in the Sahara: 1963," MERIP Reports, No. 45 (March 1976).〕 On October 29, 1965, Mehdi Ben Barka was abducted ("disappeared") in Paris by French policemen and never seen again. On Dec. 29, 1975, ''Time'' magazine published an article called ("The Murder of Mehdi Ben Barka" ), stating that three Moroccan agents were responsible for the death of Ben Barka, one of them former Interior Minister Mohammed Oufkir. Speculation persists as to CIA involvement. French intelligence agents and the Israeli Mossad were also involved, according to the article. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mehdi Ben Barka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
