The General Directorate for National Security (DGSN) reported in a statement that the 28-year-old suspect was arrested while performing reckless maneuvers on a public road in Marrakech, endangering both his own safety and that of other road users.
He also refused to comply with police orders and provided a false identity during the identity check, the statement added.
A database check with the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) revealed that the suspect is the subject of an international wanted notice issued by French judicial authorities for his alleged involvement in crimes committed in France. These include organized acts of vandalism against property, as well as kidnapping, unlawful confinement, hostage-taking, death threats, and acts of violence, the statement further noted.
The suspect has been placed in custody as part of the extradition procedure, the same source added, noting that French judicial authorities have been notified of his arrest pending the submission of the extradition file.
This arrest is part of ongoing efforts to crack down on reckless driving that endangers public safety and reinforces Moroccan security services’ commitment to tracking down individuals wanted internationally for transnational criminal activities.
