Not a single day goes by in the city of Taroudant without a new incident adding to a long series of blockages, pickpockets and thefts which have become a threat to the lives of citizens.
The city, which has always been considered one of the most important elements of security and tranquility in Morocco, has today become the scene of growing security challenges that almost destroy the tranquility of its inhabitants.
According to what several residents of the city report, the bandits have become a real threat to the lives of citizens, because their attacks are no longer limited only to the night, but they now attack their victims during the day, in the streets and the alleys. , taking advantage of rush hours or empty spaces in public squares.
To varying degrees, they began to wave swords and display bladed weapons to terrorize people who had become victims in their hands.
It should be noted that criminals in the city do not hesitate to use motorcycles as a means of quick escape, which complicates the pursuit or tracking efforts of security authorities.
There are reports of an increase in incidents in the city, including interceptions of passers-by, theft of purses and phones, in addition to an increase in attacks on bank branches and thefts of taxis, which reflects an advanced degree of threat that does not stop at a certain limit.
The deterioration of the security situation in Taroudant raises questions about the effectiveness of security services in the face of these criminal phenomena.
The tasks performed by the police are mainly limited to organizing traffic, while the most important and urgent problems that directly affect the lives of citizens are neglected.
Faced with this worrying situation, citizens are calling for urgent intervention from the security state of Agadir, to restore security and tranquility in the city.
Will Taroudant remain hostage to the bandits, or will the security authorities be able to impose their control and restore its prestige as quickly as possible?
Residents are waiting for help and real solutions that guarantee them security in their city, which has always been a symbol of peace.
