Police in the coastal city of El Jadida have launched a criminal investigation after a young woman was found dead Sunday in a home in the Sidi Moussa neighborhood, authorities said.

According to Hespress AR sources, the victim showed signs of violence. The discovery prompted the regional police headquarters to dispatch judicial police units, technical investigators, and forensic teams to the scene.

The public prosecutor’s office at the El Jadida Court of Appeal ordered an extensive probe into the crime scene and the victim’s social circle. Preliminary inquiries identified a young man who was reportedly with the woman before her death as the prime suspect.

The victim’s body was transferred to the Mohammed V Regional Hospital morgue for autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. Investigators are working to locate and arrest the suspect for questioning before presenting him to prosecutors.
