The Royal Gendarmerie’s High Command has issued strict directives prohibiting the transmission of any official document or report via social media applications such as WhatsApp. These instructions apply to all regional commands, barracks, centers, and patrols, ensuring strict compliance with the legal framework governing the institution’s operations.
This measure follows a court ruling last December, which acquitted a driver accused of exceeding the speed limit. The court deemed the violation report invalid due to procedural errors, as it was documented and transmitted via WhatsApp by Royal Gendarmerie officers at a checkpoint in Ouarzazate.
According to informed sources, the High Command issues annual memoranda reminding all personnel that the use of social media applications in official transactions is strictly prohibited to maintain confidentiality and credibility. Additionally, all Royal Gendarmerie members have been provided with a guideline manual outlining strict instructions on this matter. Any violation of these directives could result in a military trial for breaching institutional regulations.
This decision represents a significant step toward reinforcing legal compliance and safeguarding official documents, aligning with the transparency and professionalism standards upheld by the institution.
