Radio host Momo returns to court over fabricated theft case
Wednesday 10 July 2024 - 10:20

A Casablanca court will hear today the defense of a radio presenter, Mohamed Bousfiha, known as “Momo,” and his colleagues in a fabricated theft case.

Prosecutors allege the presenter and his associates staged a fake theft on-air, exploiting their large audience. 

They claim the defendants obstructed the work of security services and provided evasive answers during questioning. Despite these alleged evasions, prosecutors maintain the charges against all three individuals.

The prosecution identifies the presenter, “Momo,” as the central figure and allege a pre-arranged plan between the presenter and his colleagues to fabricate the phone theft in order to claim a prize. 

Technical expertise on the phones supposedly confirms this collusion.
