A French citizen residing illegally in Morocco was arrested in Fez after being the subject of an international arrest warrant issued by French authorities, on suspicion of his involvement in an international drug trafficking case.
Morocco’s General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) announced the arrest of the 32-year-old individual this week, following a red notice issued by the Interpol.
Currently, in custody, the French individual will soon be presented before a judge, expected to undergo the extradition process to return to France and face drug trafficking charges.
As an Interpol member, Morocco hosts an Interpol National Central Bureau (NCB), which connects its national law enforcement with other countries and with the General Secretariat via Interpol’s secure global police communications network called I-24/7.
This bureau is located in Rabat.
The country has a history of capturing interpol wanted fugitives, which attests to its great efforts in maintaining global security and cooperation with international security forces.
