Postcard From Casablanca

In Casablanca:
- A star-studded party (attended by the likes of JLo) presaged the opening of Africa's biggest mall, complete with Gucci and Dior.
- A rapper known as "the defiant one" was jailed for four months. His supporters say he was arrested because of his opposition to the ruling party.
- Protesters flood the street to debate whether the country's recent political reforms have gone far enough.
