A gendarme in the clutches of the royal gendarmerie of Khémisset. He is accused of having demanded 400 DH to help a user cancel legal proceedings.

On the instructions of the public prosecutor’s office near the Rabat Court of Appeal, the Khémisset gendarmerie elements set a trap for the gendarme and managed to arrest him "at the moment he was receiving the agreed amount". Pending his appearance before the public prosecutor’s office near the Rabat Court of Appeal, who will notify him of the charges that will be brought against him, the accused has been placed in custody.
