Young woman's body exhumed 7 months after death in Ksar el-Kebir

The quiet village of Souaken, a suburb of Al-Qsar Al-Kebir, was disturbed yesterday when authorities exhumed the body of a young woman, seven months after her death and burial.

The exhumation of “S.M.” was ordered by the prosecutor of the Tangier court in response to a complaint filed by her family regarding her sudden death.

Authorities will now conduct forensic analysis on the body in an attempt to determine the cause of her death.

The family’s concerns have led to the reopening of the case, and the investigation will focus on determining whether any suspicious circumstances surrounded the woman’s death.
