Heartbreaking tragedy in the outskirts of Tetouan

The road connecting the city of Tetouan to the Azla area, specifically near the Oued M’hannech, was the scene of a tragic traffic accident this Friday morning. A young man lost his life after losing control of his vehicle, which veered off the road and plunged into the valley below, leaving the local community in deep shock.

Emergency response and rescue operations

Immediately after being notified, teams from the Civil Protection, alongside local authorities and members of the National Security forces, rushed to the scene. Rescue workers made strenuous efforts to extract the young man trapped inside the wreckage, but the force of the collision made medical intervention difficult, and the victim succumbed to his severe injuries.

Investigation into the accident

Security services cordoned off the area to facilitate the recovery of the vehicle by a tow truck and to collect necessary evidence. In the same context, authorities have opened a judicial investigation under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor to reveal all the circumstances and details surrounding this painful incident and to determine the actual causes that led the car to veer off the road, while legal and medical procedures remain ongoing to clarify the details of the case.
