HIBAPRESS – Mohammed Dhaher
Elements of the anti-drug squad, supported by elements of the anti-gang unit, raided, in the early hours of Friday morning, a cafe specializing in serving shisha on Mauritania Street in the Gueliz district.
The raid resulted in the seizure of various alcoholic beverages, a significant quantity of hard drugs, and two plates of hallucinogenic pills, in addition to pieces of hashish prepared for distribution. Also seized were 200 shisha bottles, four kilograms of molasses, and 300 clay heads ("shakaf") used for serving shisha.
The raid also led to the arrest of the cafe manager, in addition to six girls, including one minor, and four individuals active in the establishment in promoting illicit substances.
All those arrested were taken to the Marrakech security headquarters, where the suspects are expected to be held under police custody pending investigations overseen by the competent public prosecutor's office, to uncover all the circumstances, details, and background of this case. The cafe was subsequently closed.
