Morocco’s National Police (DGSN) in Kenitra arrested an illegal sub-Saharan African immigrant on Saturday who is suspected of being involved in the fatal stabbing of a homeless person several months ago, according to security sources.
The body of the homeless person was discovered in a vacant building in the city center in late January, bearing evidence of violence from a sharp weapon.
After an investigation backed by forensic analysis, investigators located and arrested the alleged perpetrator in Kenitra.
The police have also linked him to a similar murder in 2022, the same sources reported.
The suspect is now in police custody, pending further investigation under the supervision of the prosecutor’s office.
