Plastic Surgeon’s Trial: New Evidence Emerges in Human Trafficking Case

The revelations never end. This is evidenced by the confrontation between Zineb B., the main accused ranked second in the order of criminal responsibility in this case, who is an intermediary recruited for her ability to convince and collect donations, and an employee of the Chifaa clinic. In a telephone recording, the former was asking the second defendant for a sum of money. Questioned on this subject by the president of the court, Judge Ali Tarchi, Zineb B. made the judge believe that the employee owed her money and she was trying to get reimbursed.

The employee dismantled her "lie" and assured that it was actually the commission of the main accused, set at 20%, reports Hespress. A commission that she received for each file in which she intervened to collect funds for the treatment of patients. Was Dr. Hassan Tazi aware of this commission? The employee answered in the negative. She explained that this commission was obtained with the approval of the famous plastic surgeon’s brother, as well as his wife.

Zineb B. managed to convince businessmen, artists and other public figures to make donations by showing them videos of the patients who would benefit from these donations. The judge also questioned her about the content of her telephone calls with these various personalities. A sum of 6,800 dirhams to open the funeral expenses of a child who died at the clinic was notably mentioned. She explained that she had to solicit donors because they did not always pay the full amount.

Another revelation: the allegations that the main accused used her daughter’s bank account to receive funds due to the suspension of her own account are false, as her account was indeed active.
