Al Hoceima regional security forces successfully thwarted an irregular migration attempt on Tuesday and apprehended 29 individuals, including a minor girl and six underage boys, security sources told state agency MAP.

The operation was carried out in conjunction with the Royal Gendarmerie’s coastal services in Al Hoceima, with the suspects being caught red-handed while attempting to illegally migrate by sea, according to the same source.

The source also stated that a vessel believed to have been intended for these illicit activities was seized during the operation.

The accused have been subjected to judicial investigation under the supervision of the Prosecutor’s Office, while investigations are still ongoing in order to apprehend potential accomplices.
