Algerian media reported that security forces arrested individuals «acting against Algeria's interests» in Oran and Sidi Bel Abbes. Among those detained were two Moroccan workers and an Algerian university student.
The three individuals were accused of working on behalf of a foreign country to harm Algeria. The Moroccan workers were remanded in custody on charges of «espionage, undermining national unity and state security»
The university student was also detained on charges of spreading false news and using technology to recruit people for a terrorist organization.
This is not the first time Morocco has faced accusations of espionage from Algeria. Last September, Algeria arrested three Moroccans on similar charges.
The Algerian president previously justified the imposition of visas on Moroccans due to «suspicions of Zionist agents and spies entering Algeria using Moroccan passports».
