Elements of the Judicial Police squad of the Sidi Kacem provincial district arrested, on Thursday, a technician and her husband, who owns a medical analysis laboratory, for their alleged involvement in forgery of Covid-19 screening tests results.

The two suspects, aged 26 and 39, were caught in flagrante delicto of tampering with the results of novel coronavirus tests, said the National Police (DGSN) in a statement.

The suspects were providing testing certificates to people who have never performed them, in exchange for a sum of 600 DH each, it said.

The search operations resulted in the seizure of 23 forged medical certificates including fictitious test results and 08 copies of national ID cards belonging to people wishing to perform the test.

The suspects were placed in custody at the disposal of the investigation conducted under the supervision of the competent prosecutor’s office to determine the ins and outs of this case and all the criminal acts they are accused of, the DGSN concluded.
