Forêt 33 case in Mohammedia: six arrested after three bodies found

Map: Mohammédia, Morocco

Six people, including two brothers arrested in Ouezzane province, were detained this weekend in the Forêt 33 case in Mohammedia, Morocco. One of them is reportedly the main suspect in the murder of two young people whose bodies were found in the forest, according to TelQuel.

Six people were arrested this weekend in the Forêt 33 case in Mohammedia, including two brothers detained in Ouezzane province, reports TelQuel. One of the suspects is reportedly the main suspect in the murder of two young people whose bodies were found in the wooded area.

The expression “forêt des...” refers to the Mohammedia forest, a wooded area near Casablanca where the bodies were discovered. The two brothers were apprehended in Ouezzane province, in north-western Morocco, according to the Moroccan media outlet.

The case has seen multiple twists since the bodies were discovered, without the public prosecutor's office releasing a consolidated tally of arrests. The main suspect being sought is therefore reportedly now behind bars.
