Police in Fez, working with the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance, arrested four people Wednesday suspected of trafficking drugs and psychotropic substances, authorities said.
The suspects were stopped in Fez while driving two cars and caught in possession of narcotics, police said in a statement. Officers seized 5,888 medical narcotic pills of various types, 67 kilograms (147 pounds) of cannabis resin and 295 grams (10 ounces) of cocaine.
Police also confiscated a large sum of money in Moroccan dirhams believed to be proceeds from drug sales.
The suspects were placed in custody for further investigation under the supervision of the public prosecutor’s office to determine the full scope of their activities and identify possible accomplices, authorities said.
