Renowned Moroccan Actor Aziz Maouhoub Dies at 84 After Long Illness
Aziz Maouhoub is no more. The Moroccan actor and theater man died yesterday, Sunday, March 3, in a clinic in Rabat, after a long illness.
Born in Marrakech in 1939, he had been a laureate in 1962 of the School of Actors and Theater, before creating, with others, a few years later, the National Union of Theater Professionals.
A familiar face on Moroccan television, Aziz Maouhoub had notably participated in series such as "Khat rajâa", or "Chajart zawiya", and in many theater plays, a field he particularly enjoyed.
In 2015, the actor was decorated with the Wissam Al Moukafaa Al Watania of the 2nd class (Commander) by King Mohammed VI.
The Massar show on 2m had dedicated a special evening to him a few years ago:
