Elderly Man Arrested for Triple Homicide of Family Members in Meknes, Morocco

This weekend, the alleged murderer of the three people found dead last week in an apartment located in the Al Wahda district of Meknes was arrested. The latter is the elder brother of the women.

The victims, two women aged 56 and 60, as well as the 21-year-old son of one of them, were found on March 8 after neighbors alerted the authorities because an extremely foul odor was emanating from the apartment. They were killed with a bladed weapon.

According to a statement from the DGSN, the alleged murderer was wearing clothes still stained with the blood of one of the victims at the time of his arrest. He also had in his possession a sum of money withdrawn from an ATM with the bank card of one of his victims.

The investigation continues to elucidate the ins and outs of this triple homicide.
