Sheikha Tarax to Appear Before the Public Prosecutor in Marrakech
On October 12, 2026, it has been announced that the popular Moroccan artist known as "Sheikha Tarax" is scheduled to appear before the Public Prosecutor's office in Marrakech on Tuesday, October 13. This legal proceeding is a part of ongoing investigations regarding a complaint lodged by her sister-in-law, identified as "Hiba," who has accused the artist of violence, unlawful detention, extortion, and abuse of power.
The controversy began when Hiba shared videos on social media platforms detailing her experiences of alleged abuse and confinement. In these videos, she also made claims of being pressured in relation to a matter involving her daughter, urging her to change her statements. These allegations quickly garnered widespread attention, prompting significant public discourse.
Following the release of these videos, Hiba proceeded to the Public Prosecutor's office in Rabat to file her formal complaint. This action was followed by law enforcement measures, including summons and listening procedures conducted by the relevant judicial police department with all involved parties, including Sheikha Tarax herself.
Her appearance before the Public Prosecutor is expected to be a crucial turning point in determining the legal trajectory of the case, as the prosecutor assesses the investigation reports and case details before making any decisions.
