Fes police arrested a 42-year-old individual on Wednesday who is suspected of having committed extortion, fraud, and impersonating a tour guide.
The arrest comes after Police Digital Services identified a video posted on a social media page showing a foreign tourist claiming to have been “extorted” by an individual impersonating a tour guide in the old city of Fes, according to a security source.
Investigations led to the identification and arrest of the suspect, who has now been taken into custody subject to further investigation under the supervision of the Public Prosecutor’s Office.
