A local authority source from the Sais district in Fez told Fes News that Ramadan 2025 has seen a significant improvement in the city’s security situation, with a sharp decline in the “Tarmdina” phenomenon. This has made this holy month the safest and most peaceful in Fez in over a decade.
According to the source, this achievement is the result of several contributing factors, including a drop in unemployment due to urban development projects in Fez, which have provided jobs for hundreds of unemployed individuals. Additionally, intensified security operations targeting drug dealers and stricter judicial rulings against criminal activities have had a noticeable positive impact.
The source added that security and local authorities successfully established control over public spaces by reinforcing security presence and increasing patrols, creating a sense of safety among residents. These security measures extended beyond crime prevention to include specialized operations targeting drug and contraband dens.
The source emphasized the importance of capitalizing on this success by continuing to encourage investments that create more job opportunities and intensifying security campaigns against drug traffickers and dealers. This will help strengthen security and stability in the city and ensure that these positive changes persist in the coming months.
Concluding the statement to Fes News, the source stressed the crucial role of collaboration between all stakeholders and civil society to maintain the safe and comfortable environment Fez experienced during this holy month.
