The local judicial police in Rabat thwarted an attempt to traffic a ton of smuggled hookah tobacco (locally known as Maâssel) on Wednesday, according to security sources.
Based on Territory Surveillance Services’ (DGST) accurate information, the police intercepted a goods transport truck coming from Casablanca and heading to the Ain Atiq area near Temara in central Morocco. Police also arrested the truck driver.
The suspect is currently undergoing a judicial investigation under the public prosecutor’s office to uncover the case’s circumstances and apprehend other individuals involved in these criminal activities.
