Content Creator Detained Following Accusations Against Police for Theft
On September 5, 2026, the judicial police in Fes, in coordination with the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance, apprehended social media content creator "Simo Amin" after he accused the police of theft in a video he shared online. The traffic division in Fes had previously stopped Simo for driving a vehicle with a young child seated in the front passenger seat, which is a violation of traffic laws. This incident led to the issuance of a traffic ticket against him.
In a reaction to being fined 300 dirhams for this violation, Simo took to social media to express his outrage, claiming that this fine amounted to theft, asserting that the money would have been used to purchase food for his child and family. His video contained derogatory remarks aimed at the police officers involved in the incident.
Subsequent investigations allowed authorities to detain Simo for further questioning, which is being overseen by the competent public prosecutor. The investigation aims to uncover the circumstances surrounding the case and to clarify the true motivations behind his actions.
