Spain Arrests Moroccan Drug Kingpin Wanted by France in Marbella Raid

This Moroccan trafficker who was on the run was finally located in Marbella, before being arrested by the police.

In a statement released last Tuesday, the Malaga provincial police station stated that they had arrested the Moroccan, after verifying the validity of the notice issued by the French authorities.

According to the results of the investigation carried out by the Spanish police, this Moroccan born in Nador was in charge of receiving "drugs from North Africa" in Spain. This drug was then stored in the north of the country (Catalonia), the same source specifies.

According to EFE, the court is seeking a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison for the one that the justice system considers as the "only intermediary between the Moroccan producers and the final buyers in Marseille".

The man was exclusively responsible for checking the merchandise, collecting the money from the sale of the drugs and ensuring the convoy to Marseille.
