Murder in Tangier.. A Moroccan Jew was killed

Moroccan public opinion was shaken by a murder in the city of Tangier, in which a Moroccan Jew was stabbed to death by a knife from a drunk.

The victim was a Moroccan Jew, according to information released by security authorities in the northern Moroccan city of Tangier.

The State Department of the Judicial Police in the city of Tangier, which has opened a judicial investigation under the supervision of the competent public prosecution to determine the circumstances surrounding this crime, revealed that a 36-year-old person with a history of public right crimes and signs of mental disorder is suspected of involvement in a case related to beatings and injuries using a white weapon leading to death against a restaurant driver in the city of Tangier.

According to a statement by the General Directorate of National Security in Morocco, preliminary research indicates that the suspect is permanently tied to the restaurant run by the victim, a Moroccan citizen of the Jewish faith, in order to receive free meals before entering into a dispute with the victim, after which he was exposed to a physical assault with a small knife that caused his death during his transfer to the hospital.

The source added that the suspect was subjected to a theoretical security measure pending the search, which is supervised by the competent public prosecution, to determine the real reasons and backgrounds behind the commission of this crime, which the preliminary research and statements are likely to be related to an accidental dispute that resulted from the victim’s refusal of the suspect’s request to work as a daily worker in the restaurant he runs.

The man died of stabbings from the suspect, in which he used a white weapon, before fleeing, but was arrested by security authorities.
