As far as I know the UNHCR are under no pressure and can fulfil their mandate impartially with unfettered access nature of the refugee community is such that most in the main towns.
(7) Physical Security of Refugees
Refugees are as safe as any other class of person in Morocco and are protected by the normal forces of law. Dangers can arise for refugees as Morocco develops her external policies.
