Marrakech police, in coordination with the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance (DGST), arrested on Friday a 25-year-old French national, subject of an international arrest warrant issued by French judicial authorities, according to a security source.
The individual, who has been residing illegally in Morocco, was caught in possession of a suspected forged passport. A routine check of Interpol’s international database confirmed he was wanted under a red notice issued by the central bureau in Paris.
The warrant relates to a prison sentence for his involvement in an attempted homicide case.
Following his arrest, the suspect was placed in police custody pending a judicial investigation supervised by the public prosecutor’s office. Moroccan authorities are now in the process of notifying their French counterparts as part of ongoing security cooperation efforts.
This operation reflects Morocco’s commitment to international security collaboration, particularly in tracking and apprehending individuals wanted for transnational crimes.
