Four individuals aged 22 to 46 were arrested by the judicial police elements of Salé, in coordination with the services of the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance (DGST). They would belong to a criminal gang involved in a case of theft, sequestration and violence.

This was in the Sidi Taibi region, located between the cities of Salé and Kenitra. As for the fourth suspect, he was arrested in Tangier, the DGSN specifies.
