The National Police Force arrested two brothers, aged 35 and 40, one of whom has a criminal record, on Friday, June 13, on suspicion of involvement in a criminal network specialized in fraud, embezzlement, and human trafficking.
Investigations revealed that the suspects deceived their victims—women seeking to migrate to Europe—by promising to assist them in obtaining travel visas. They exploited this trust to establish companies in the victims’ names, then used those companies’ documents to purchase cars on credit before seizing and selling them.
The inquiries led to the identification of three victims, whose information was exploited in deceitful ways, resulting in the seizure of 20 vehicles.
The suspects are currently in police custody under the authority of the public prosecutor in Casablanca, while investigations continue to apprehend other individuals involved in this organized criminal activity.
