Arrest of Main Suspect in Marrakech Assault

On October 27, 2026, the judicial police in Marrakech successfully apprehended the primary suspect linked to the assault on a Jordanian investor operating in the sand quarry sector in the Akfay region. This operation was conducted under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor's office, which is overseeing the ongoing investigation. The incident involved the victim being threatened, leading to the theft of 10,000 dirhams and an expensive mobile phone.

Following a series of field investigations, the authorities were able to identify and detain the suspect, a man in his thirties, and recover the stolen mobile phone. Furthermore, the investigation has revealed the potential involvement of two accomplices, prompting the issuance of national search warrants for their arrest in order to bring them to justice.
