French Tourist Arrested for Molesting Two Moroccan Minor Girls

The city of Fez woke up to a new sexual scandal involving a French tourist. Tuesday night, local authorities arrested the 58-year-old foreigner for sexually molesting two Moroccan minors aged 10 and 13-year-old.

The Prefectural Police Department of Fez arrested on Tuesday a 58-year-old French tourist suspected of sexually assaulting two underage girls, said the Directorate General of National Security (DGSN).

The elements of the Fez tourist police brigade intervened late Tuesday in a tailoring workshop in the medina after a group of citizens gathered around the French national, says DGNS in a statement.

The first elements of the investigation indicate that the suspect resided with the family of one of the two victims, added the statement, noting that a sex toy was seized from his belonging.

The suspect and the owner of the tailoring workshop were placed in custody and made available to the investigation conducted under the supervision of the competent prosecutor to determine the circumstances of this case, said the statement.
