On Tuesday, February 10th, the National Brigade of Judicial Police managed to arrest a 34-year-old French citizen who was the subject of an international arrest warrant issued by the judicial authorities in France.
The suspect was arrested in the city of Tangier, where a screening of his information in the Interpol database revealed that he was wanted internationally under a red notice, issued at the request of the National Central Bureau in Paris, on suspicion of his connection to a criminal network involved in international drug smuggling. The suspect has been subjected to extradition procedures in accordance with the instructions of the competent Public Prosecutor's Office, while the National Central Bureau "Interpol Rabat," affiliated with the General Directorate of National Security, was tasked with notifying its counterpart in France of the arrest, pending the extradition procedure. The arrest of the suspect comes in the context of the commitment of the Moroccan security services to activate mechanisms of international security cooperation, especially the pursuit and arrest of individuals wanted internationally in cases of transnational crime.
