Police authorities in Fez arrested six people today, whose ages vary from 31 to 62, suspected of being linked to a criminal network that forges foreign currencies in the city of Sefrou.
Members of this criminal network are suspected of being involved in fraud, claiming the ability to search for treasures and artifacts, as well as being involved in counterfeiting foreign currencies, particularly the Belarusian rouble and the US dollar that they disburse for the benefit of organized networks, according to the preliminary research data.
