Royal Gendarmerie in Nouaceur province urged to investigate alarming reports of crime in Bouskoura

The Nouaceur province, specifically the areas surrounding Bouskoura, is experiencing a state of public frustration following alarming reports from local citizens. These complaints focus on an alarming security situation near the Al-Itqan mill and the “Péage” area, where allegations of drug trafficking activities have surfaced.

According to local accounts, the situation involves more than just drug trade; it has extended to physical assaults and repeated motorcycle thefts, creating an atmosphere of fear. Reports indicate that some individuals have been physically attacked, with one victim reportedly hospitalized in serious condition.

Despite intermittent security patrols, residents have expressed deep concerns regarding the resurgence of these criminal activities, prompting an urgent appeal to the Regional Command of the Royal Gendarmerie, the Public Prosecutor’s Office, and provincial authorities.

Citizens are demanding a serious and urgent investigation to establish the facts, identify those responsible, and firmly address criminal threats to public safety. While upholding the presumption of innocence, they have also called for an investigation into potential negligence or oversight by local authorities.

The primary objective remains a firm and responsible intervention by the authorities to ensure the rule of law, provide public safety, and protect youth from the dangers of crime and delinquency, applying the law equally to all.
