Ridouan Taghi, the most wanted Mocro Mafia boss in the Netherlands, was sentenced Tuesday to life in jail in the Marengo trial. His right-hand man, Moroccan-Dutch Said Razzouki, received the same sentence.
Since his arrest last week in Dubai, the extradition of alleged criminal Ridouan Taghi has opened a new chapter in the diplomatic crisis between Morocco and the Netherlands. Ties between the two countries were marked in the past by similar issues.
