The security services in Marrakech have acted promptly following the circulation of a video posted by a victimized tourist, which depicted his experience of being extorted by an individual who claimed to be guiding him through the city's ancient alleys. The situation escalated to violence when the tourist refused to hand over a sum of money to the alleged guide. According to a security source, the immediate investigations and field research conducted by the authorities enabled them to identify and apprehend the suspect in a narrow alley of the old city in a remarkably short time frame.
The detained individual is currently under police custody, as the judicial inquiry overseen by the relevant public prosecutor's office proceeds. This investigation aims to uncover all circumstances and details surrounding the case, as well as to ascertain the full extent of the criminal actions attributed to the suspect before he is brought to justice.
