On Saturday, June 14, Marrakech police, in coordination with the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance (DGST), arrested a French national of Malian origin wanted on an international warrant issued by French judicial authorities.
According to the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN), the suspect is sought for serving a prison sentence related to international drug trafficking as part of a criminal organization. An Interpol database check confirmed the individual is also wanted for money laundering.
