Services from the fifth police district in Tanger arrested a man on Thursday afternoon, placing him in police custody for his alleged involvement in insulting an authority agent while on duty, as well as for defamation and verbal abuse across digital platforms.
Background and Details of the Dispute in Souani
The case dates back to Monday, September 28, when the assigned agent visited a home in the Souani district following a complaint regarding unauthorized construction work. Upon inspection, no active construction or repair work was found at the site.
