Moroccan-Dutch Influencer Detained Over Controversial YouTube Dating Show Appearance

Under fire from social media criticism due to her rather daring style of dress during a dating show on YouTube, the Dutch-Moroccan influencer Armani L’Goumani was arrested in Morocco.

The 20-year-old woman told Rijnmond that she was arrested at the airport as she was about to board a flight to the Netherlands. "I was told I had to report to the nearest police station for a few questions as part of an ongoing investigation," she recounts.

In the meantime, Armani L’Goumani is staying in an apartment. What exactly is she being accused of? The influencer recently participated in an online dating show. In a video excerpt of the show circulated on social media, she appears in a mini-skirt, which caused an uproar in Morocco. The TikToker with 530,000 subscribers admits that if she had seen the controversial video before it was published, she might have also found her outfit too daring.

The Dutch-Moroccan woman is also criticized for her behavior during the show. "People find me spicy and arrogant." "I offend women by my choice of clothes and men by letting my dog choose my dates. It wasn’t my intention, it was more for fun. I respect the norms and values of Morocco, although I’m not the only one dressing like this," defends the influencer who hopes not to end up in prison.

The Rotterdammer risks a two-year prison sentence and a fifty-euro fine for "intentional nudity and indecency" in Morocco. The influencer apologized on her TikTok account, explaining that she grew up in the Netherlands. The young woman is waiting to be informed of her fate. She is also considering seeking the services of a lawyer.
