Agadir police apprehended a 48-year-old man of Sub-Saharan African origin on Thursday for his suspected involvement in a drug smuggling operation, a security source reported.
The suspect was apprehended while preparing to board a flight to a West African country, and routine security checks at the airport’s entry gate revealed nine kilograms of cannabis resin hidden inside two travel bags.
The suspect is now in custody pending further investigation under the supervision of the prosecutor’s office.
