Casablanca Police Detain Teenager for Fake School Bomb Threats

Casablanca:Police in Casablanca have detained a 15-year-old student following false terror threats made against schools in the city.

According to Agence Marocaine De Presse, a school in Casablanca received two threatening phone calls from an unknown number on Friday morning. The caller claimed there was a car bomb placed at the school's main entrance, which led to the activation of security protocols designed for serious threats and the initiation of a judicial investigation.

Investigations and evidence collected at the scene revealed that the threats were not genuine and were made by a minor. The individual was identified and detained as part of an investigation coordinated by the public prosecutor's office. Meanwhile, judicial police officers are pursuing further investigations to locate a second minor suspected of being involved in these threats, which have targeted several schools in Casablanca.
