  Abd el-Krim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In his time there, he came to oppose Spanish domination, and was imprisoned in 1917 for saying that Spain should not expand beyond her current dominions (which in practice excluded most of the effectively ungoverned Rif), and for expressing sympathy for the German cause in World War I.
Soon after escaping, he returned to Ajdir in 1919 and, with his brother, began to unite the tribes of the Rif into an independent Republic of the Rif.
In this cause, he tried to end existing inter-tribal feuds and to restore orthodoxy in the local practice of Islam by ending practices such as the eating of pork.

 Spain Morocco Rif War 1919-1926
During his employment with the Spanish protectorate administration he began to be disillusioned with Spanish rule, eventually opposed Spanish policies, and was imprisoned.
As a Spanish force landed at Alhucemas near Ajdir, a French army of 160,000 men under Marshal Philippe Pétain attacked from the south.
Confronted with this combined Franco-Spanish force of 250,000 men with overwhelming technological superiority, Abd el-Krim surrendered on May 27, 1926, and was exiled to the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean.
