The Casablanca Judicial Police Department launched a judicial investigation on the evening of Thursday, June 13, under the supervision of the Public Prosecutor. The investigation aims to uncover how a prisoner convicted of aggravated robbery escaped from a hospital while under medical supervision and to identify anyone who helped him.
According to preliminary findings, the prisoner exploited a security lapse to escape with the suspected assistance of several individuals. He surrendered shortly after the escape.
Investigators are now focusing on determining the extent of involvement of the prisoner, his wife (suspected of bribing guards to neglect their duties), a private guard, a police officer, and a member of the light intervention corps. All are suspected of actions or omissions that facilitated the escape.
The Public Prosecutor has ordered the necessary precautionary measures be taken against the prisoner, his wife, and the other suspects. The investigation aims to uncover all the details surrounding the case, determine culpability, and initiate the appropriate legal proceedings.
