Three Moroccan Women Sentenced to Life in UAE Drug Trafficking Case

More than a year after the death sentence of a Moroccan national involved in the brutal murder of her lover, 3 young Moroccan women have just been sentenced to life imprisonment for a case of drug trafficking in Abu Dhabi.

Victims of major fraud operations, the 3 defendants had been recruited for large sums of money, before finding themselves trapped in international human trafficking mafias.

Stripped of their personal belongings and documents, the Moroccan citizens were forced to engage in the illicit drug trade, attracted by the life of opulence and luxury in the United Arab Emirates.

In 2018, a woman of Moroccan nationality had been sentenced to death for having savagely murdered her boyfriend, cut up his body, and then cooked part of it and served it to Pakistani workers in a rice dish.
