French National Arrested in Casablanca on Interpol Money Laundering Charges

On Sunday, September 21, a French national sought by Interpol was arrested upon arrival at Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca. He was subject to an international arrest warrant issued by judicial authorities in France.

According to a security source, checks on the individual, a 44-year-old of Turkish descent, revealed that he was wanted internationally under a Red Notice requested by the National Central Bureau in Paris. He is suspected of being linked to a criminal network involved in fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, and economic and financial crimes.

The suspect was subjected to extradition procedures following instructions from the competent public prosecutor. The National Central Bureau “Interpol Rabat,” under the Directorate General of National Security, has been tasked with notifying their counterpart in France about the arrest related to the extradition process.

This arrest reflects Morocco’s commitment to enhancing international security cooperation, particularly in pursuing and apprehending individuals wanted for transnational crimes.
