Malika Oufkir (Arabic: مليكة أوفقير) (born April 2, 1953) is a Moroccan Berber writer and former victim of enforced disappearance.

She is the daughter of General Mohamed Oufkir and a cousin of fellow Moroccan writer and actress Leila Shenna.

But after attempting to assassinate the King and a Moroccan delegation returning from France on a Boeing 727 jet in a coup d'état in 1972, General Oufkir died with several bullet wounds on his body, but his death was claimed to be a suicide.

Then, General Oufkir's entire family was sent to the secret Tazmamart prison in the Atlas Mountains where they suffered harsh conditions for a total of 15 years.

[citation needed] Malika published an account of her life in prison, entitled Stolen Lives: Twenty Years in a Desert Jail,[4] with Tunisian author Michèle Fitoussi.
