Major Drug Bust in Agadir Leads to Arrests

In a significant law enforcement operation in Agadir, Moroccan police, working in close collaboration with the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance (DGST), successfully apprehended two individuals on the evening of August 19, 2026. These arrests were part of an extensive effort to combat drug trafficking in the region. During this operation, authorities seized a substantial cache of illegal substances, including thousands of psychotropic pills, cannabis resin, and cocaine, which highlights the ongoing challenges of drug-related issues in Morocco.

The operation reflects the dedication of local law enforcement agencies to maintaining public safety and curbing drug abuse.
