Based on accurate information provided by the services of the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance, the Anti-Gang Squad of the Rabat Security Directorate arrested three people on Saturday, February 8, suspected of being linked to a criminal network involved in illicit drug trafficking, possession and use of a hunting rifle for the purpose of assault.
According to preliminary data, the suspects had seized a rental car and refused to return it to its owner. When police officers intervened, the suspects attempted to flee by firing warning shots from a shotgun.
The security investigations, carried out in coordination with the services of the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance, led to the identification and arrest of the suspects inside a house in Rabat, where they were caught red-handed in possession of one kilogram of the drug Shira, along with three white weapons of different sizes.
The hunting rifle that was used in the incident was also found, carefully hidden in the Akrash area in the outskirts of Rabat.
The suspects were taken into custody, under the instructions of the competent public prosecution, in order to uncover all the circumstances of this case and the possible extensions of their criminal activity.
