Casablanca Café Owner Arrested for Running Illegal Brothel and Drug Operation

Like the hostess bars in the Pigalle district of Paris, the young girls, seated inside the café, patiently await their clients. To the curious, the owner offers an all-inclusive service: condom, contraceptive pill and even psychotropic drugs.

The reputation of the café, which has spread beyond the neighborhood, has attracted a large number of customers, eager to have a good time in the company of the hostesses. This reputation has also aroused the suspicions of the police, who carried out a search on the premises.

According to the daily Assabah, the 20 people arrested admitted to obtaining the psychotropic drugs found in their possession from the waitress. The owner, who supplied her with the goods, finally confessed everything.

Prosecuted for pimping, prostitution and drug trafficking, the owner, the waitress and the other defendants were brought before the Prosecutor of the King near the Court of First Instance of Casablanca on Sunday, October 6.
