Following his release from prison in France last week under electronic surveillance, Morrocan popstar Saad Lamjarred has been reaching out to his fans.

Through a post on the star’s official Facebook page , the star dedicated a YouTube video to his loyal fans, particularly those who, according to the star, have supported him from the very beginning of his problems. He was arrested on charges of raping a French girl in Paris four months ago.

The video shows Saad Lamjarred and his family giving thanks to the fans who have supported them throughout the star's rape charges.

While many commentators have been responding to the post and its video with support, others have expressed the opposite due to the rape charges that got Lamjarred in prison.
