The regional security services in Salé opened a judicial investigation under the supervision of the competent Public Prosecutor's Office on the morning of Tuesday, March 17th, to determine the criminal acts attributed to four people, including a police officer and a municipal employee, on suspicion of their involvement in a case related to the possession and illicit trafficking of narcotic medical pills.
According to preliminary information from the investigation, a joint operation between the anti-gang unit in Salé and the services of the General Directorate for the Surveillance of National Territory led to the seizure of a light vehicle after its users attempted to flee upon reaching the Bouknadel area. The search operation resulted in the discovery of 1320 hallucinogenic medical pills inside the car driven by the police officer, and his three companions were also arrested, including a municipal employee and two individuals with multiple prior criminal records. Investigations and inquiries currently continue in this case in order to determine the level and extent of each of the detainees' involvement in these criminal acts, as well as to determine the source and destination of the seized psychotropic substances.
