The judicial police of Casablanca arrested, Friday, an employee working at a company for her alleged involvement in streaming a live video on her personal Instagram account containing false accusations and explicit insults against health workers.

In this video, the 34-year-old woman accuses the medical staff of negligence in treating Covid-19 patients, claiming that health workers intentionally cause deaths among covid-19 patients, National Police (DGSN) said in a release.

A judicial investigation led to the arrest of the woman, the statement added.
