A Moroccan teenager has been sentenced to jail 'for insulting the king' after replacing the latter's tag with the name of his favorite team Barcelona, BBC News said. Eighteen-year-old schoolboy Yassine Belassal altered his country's slogan "God, The Nation, The King" on the school blackboard to read "God, The Nation, Barcelona". Consequently, the kid's action was not acknowledged by Moroccan officials, who are usually intolerant with such types of comments against the royal family. Barcelona said that they will assign a lawyer for the case, in an attempt to help the club's young fan. Belassal's father told BBC that he is set to request a royal pardon from King Mohamed VI.
