Insulting a traffic officer lands a woman behind bars in Fez

Woman referred to the judiciary in Fez for insulting a public official

Police services in the city of Fez referred a 38-year-old woman to the competent Public Prosecutor this Wednesday morning. She is involved in a case regarding the insulting of a public official while performing his duties on the public road.

Details of the incident and traffic violations

The case began when traffic police officers stopped the individual in the city center after witnessing clear traffic violations, specifically crossing a solid line and failing to stop for a red light—behaviors that posed a danger to road users.

During the process of issuing the citation, the woman subjected a national security officer to insults and verbal abuse. These actions were captured on a video that spread rapidly across social media, prompting security services to launch a precise judicial investigation into the incident.

Strict legal measures

The suspect was placed in police custody immediately upon her arrest, under the supervision of the Public Prosecutor, to complete investigations and determine all the circumstances surrounding the incident, before being presented before the justice system this morning to address the charges brought against her.
