Moroccan National Caught Smuggling Over 40,000 Euros at Tanger-Med Port

The sum of 40,320 euros was seized on Sunday by customs services at the port of Tanger-Med, according to a customs source cited by the MAP.
The Moroccan was trying to bring this sum into the country without the authorization of the Customs and Indirect Taxes Administration, the source said, according to which it was a thorough inspection of the luggage on an international bus from France that "allowed to get hold" of this money.
The sum was seized and "the person was subjected to the administrative and judicial procedures in force," it was further stated.
It should be noted that in Morocco, it is strictly forbidden to export or import currency without the written authorization of the Foreign Exchange Office.
