The Grand Palais… seized a large quantity of “Ecstasy” and “Rivotril” tablets

On Sunday afternoon, police officers from the Regional Security Commission of the city of Ksar El-Kébir were able to foil an attempt at illicit trafficking of narcotics and psychotropic substances and seize a total of 14,290 narcotic tablets of the “Ecstasy” and “Rivotril” type.

According to a security source, this large shipment of narcotic pills was seized in the possession of four people aged 24 to 39, including two women, all suspected of being linked to a criminal network active in the promotion of hallucinogenic pills.

The same source adds that these suspects were arrested in the city of Ksar El-Kebir, and that they were in possession of 11,380 hallucinogenic tablets of the “Ecstasy” type and 2,910 tablets of medical narcotics of the “Rivotril” type, in addition to a dose of cocaine, an electronic scale and a sum of money. Mali is suspected of being the product of this criminal activity.

The process of filtering suspects in the National Security database showed that two of them are wanted nationally by the judicial police and the royal gendarmerie in the cities of Kenitra and Ksar El-Kebir, suspected of involvement in cases related to counterfeiting, its use and the promotion of medicines and psychotropic substances.

The security source confirmed that the suspects were being held in theoretical custody pending the investigation to be carried out under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor, in order to uncover all the conditions and circumstances of this case, as well as to arrest the rest of the contributors and participants in this criminal activity.
