Tuesday January 7, the surveillance cameras of the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces were able to spot a drone likely to have taken off somewhere in the Karbous forest, in the commune of Beni Khaled, territorially affiliated with the prefecture of Oujda Angad, which encouraged the armed forces to actually inform the security services of the Royal Gendarmerie (territorial center of Beni Drar).
Royal Gendarmerie patrols, supported by trained dogs, moved to the suspicious location to comb it. After that, the Gendarmerie services were able to arrest at least two people, including one of Algerian nationality, and they were in possession of certain equipment. contributed to the takeoff of the “drone” plane towards Algeria, while two other people linked to the incident took refuge by fleeing.
The two suspects also admitted, during investigations carried out by the Royal Gendarmerie, that they were responsible for this drone loaded with drugs.
