Police Bust Major Morocco-France Visa Fraud Ring, Arrest Mastermind

After more than two years of investigation, the police have managed to dismantle a vast migration network from Morocco. The mastermind of the network and one of his accomplices, an employee of the Paris police prefecture, have been arrested and indicted.
The "activities" of a vast migration network from Morocco have come to an end. The mastermind of the network, a man residing in France and subject to an expulsion procedure from French territory (OQTF), has been arrested, indicted and remanded in custody, reports Europe1. He would have been the recruiter of potential candidates wishing to come to France and organized the connection between Paris and Agadir. One of his accomplices, an employee of the Paris police prefecture, was arrested and indicted.
She is suspected of having validated and issued visas for this Moroccan migrant channel without justification. Each visa issued earned her between 5,000 and 10,000 euros. She was placed under judicial supervision with a ban on engaging in any activity related to the administrative litigation of foreigners.
A third person is involved in this "lucrative business". His task was to hand over the documents in person at the Agadir consulate. For the time being, he has not yet been identified. However, the entire visa team has been renewed.
