Casablanca – On Friday, the Criminal Chamber of the Casablanca Court of Appeal held its first hearing in a case involving a member of parliament from the Constitutional Union party, along with lawyers, a judicial commissioner, and company managers. The case centers on the forgery of a waiver document benefiting a Libyan drug dealer who was previously under investigation for large financial transactions.
According to judicial sources, the case originated from a complaint filed by the Customs Administration regarding the forgery of a waiver document in favor of the Libyan drug dealer, who was already under judicial scrutiny for significant financial issues.
The defendants were arrested in connection with this case, which is drawing considerable attention due to the involvement of prominent figures, including a sitting member of parliament.
The initial hearing saw the presentation of formal defenses and preliminary requests by the defense team. The lawyers for the accused called on the court to nullify the procedures undertaken by the investigating judge, claiming procedural violations and asserting that they were not given full access to the case files.
This case is expected to spark wide debate in Moroccan political and legal circles, given the sensitivity of the accusations and the nature of the individuals involved.
All eyes will be on the upcoming sessions to see the outcome of this case, which intertwines corruption and organized crime, and its potential impacts on the political and legal landscape in Morocco.
The trial highlights the intersection of politics, law, and criminal activity, raising questions about transparency and justice in high-profile cases in the country.
