Israeli Fugitive Arrested in Morocco for International Cybercrime and Fraud
The National Brigade of the Judicial Police (BNPJ) arrested an Israeli national of Moroccan origin, wanted by Interpol for acts of fraud, breach of the security of personal data processing computer systems and forgery and use of forgeries. He committed the same offenses in Morocco.
It all started with a complaint filed by the owner of a massage and relaxation center located in Casablanca. The plaintiff is none other than the wife of an Israeli national of Moroccan origin. They met in Morocco and got married. The Israeli national had fled his country, Israel, to settle in the kingdom. His wife accuses him of having made withdrawals from her bank accounts. Facts confirmed by the results of the investigation conducted by the judicial police.
The Israeli national will be arrested. The judicial police services discover that he was wanted internationally. Interpol had issued a wanted notice on behalf of the State of Israel for his involvement in computer hacking and fraud crimes and breach of the security of computer systems, said the Arabic-language daily Assabah. In Morocco, he acted with the complicity of two managers of money transfer agencies located in Ain Chock, but also employees of his wife’s massage center.
