Police Operation Results in Arrests for Drug Possession
In a recent operation conducted by the judicial police of the first security zone in Marrakech, law enforcement successfully apprehended a young man and woman suspected of being involved in the possession and distribution of cannabis resin, locally known as "shira." The arrest occurred around 7:30 PM near Allal Al-Fassi Street, highlighting the ongoing efforts of the local authorities to combat drug-related crimes.
The police's swift action led to the confiscation of thirteen slabs of cannabis resin, alongside a substantial amount of cash totaling 20,000 dirhams, believed to be proceeds from drug trafficking activities. Following their arrest, the suspects were placed under police custody, as directed by the public prosecutor, to facilitate further investigations and uncover the full extent of their operations and any potential accomplices involved in this illicit activity.
