Ahfir: two brothers in custody following a pursuit and drug seizure
Police from the regional security commissariat of Ahfir arrested on Tuesday, 10 November in the morning, a man who had been filmed driving dangerously in front of a school establishment, endangering police officers and other road users, and attempting to hit police with his vehicle, according to le1.ma citing the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN).
During the initial intervention, the suspect refused to comply and fled, forcing one of the police officers to display his service weapon as a precaution. The vehicle was subsequently located and seized — abandoned outside the urban perimeter — thanks to searches conducted jointly with the Royal Gendarmerie.
The operation was based on precise information transmitted by the services of the General Directorate of Territory Surveillance. Checks carried out after the arrest revealed that the driver was already wanted in several cases linked to narcotics and psychotropic substances.
As part of connected investigations, the brother of the main suspect was also arrested, caught red-handed in possession of psychotropic substances intended for illicit sale. Sums of money, presented by the DGSN as stemming from these activities, were also seized.
The two brothers were placed in custody on instruction from the competent public prosecutor. The ongoing judicial investigation should make it possible to establish all the circumstances of the case and to determine the degree of involvement of each in the facts being alleged against them.
