Moroccan Football Club President Linked to Drug Trafficking and Violent Attack

A settling of scores would be the origin of an assault that occurred last week in Fnideq, in northern Morocco. A man would have been targeted by a drug trafficking network, led by the president of a football club, according to the results of the police investigation.
A drug trafficker, in his sixties, was the victim of a knife attack in the center of Fnideq. The individual was surrounded and beaten on the ground by 3 hooded individuals, who were on board 4x4 vehicles, reports Kech24.
Questioned after his passage through the emergency room, it turned out that he is a drug trafficker who has been the subject of several convictions for serious offenses. According to his confessions, it would be a settling of scores in the context of a 30-kilogram cannabis trafficking operation to Sebta.
The media points out that the head of a criminal network, namely the president of a football club in Fnideq, had entrusted him with the delivery task for the sum of 60,000 dirhams, of which he had received an advance of 25,000 dirhams.
Feeling cheated, the one called "Castanega" had sent his two main collaborators and a Spaniard to intimidate him and threaten him with reprisals if he refused to return the advance.
