The Central Bureau of Judicial Investigations (BCIJ) arrested seven individuals in the cities of Salé and Meknes on Wednesday for their alleged involvement in a criminal network that specialized in forgery, fraud, and usurping the medical profession.
The preliminary investigation revealed that two of the suspects, who were former detainees under the anti-terrorism law, usurped the function of dentist and performed surgical operations in clinics in Salé. The suspects’ victims suffered illnesses and serious complications as a result of the illegal procedures.
The investigation also found that the suspects falsified several files relating to false hospitalization expenses in order to defraud health insurance companies and health funds.
The individuals arrested were placed in police custody as part of the investigations carried out under the supervision of the competent prosecutor’s office.
The BCIJ has warned the public against the dangers of engaging in such illegal activities and urged citizens to report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
