Three Arrested in Casablanca Following Violent Incidents
In a significant police operation, authorities in the Rahma district of Casablanca apprehended three individuals aged between 21 and 25 during the early hours of September 29, 2026. These arrests were made in connection with serious offenses including arson, physical violence, and damage to private property associated with hooliganism. The suspects are currently in custody as part of an ongoing judicial investigation supervised by the relevant prosecutor's office.
The police intervention was prompted by reports of vandalism involving several vehicles parked on public roads, allegedly carried out by a group affiliated with a supporters' section. During the incident, a man, suspected of belonging to a rival supporters' group, was reportedly assaulted and injured, and his motorcycle was set on fire intentionally. Following these events, police launched investigations to identify those involved, which resulted in the identification and subsequent arrest of the three suspects. Additionally, a motorcycle believed to have been used in the commission of these acts was seized and included in the judicial proceedings.
Investigation Continues to Identify Additional Suspects
The three arrested individuals are facing charges related to arson, public disorder, assault, and property damage. Their legal responsibility is still under examination as the judicial process unfolds. The investigation aims to clarify the exact circumstances surrounding the incidents, determine the motivations behind them, and identify any further individuals who may have participated or contributed to the events.
