Moroccan intelligence trade-off
The article addresses the case of former Moroccan external intelligence official, Mahdi Hajawi, and his activities in Spain. It reports that he attempted to establish contact with Spanish authorities by offering sensitive information related to Moroccan intelligence agencies' operations, including files on terrorism, organized crime, the Pegasus spyware program, and espionage activities targeting Spanish officials, among them Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. The investigation indicates that Hajawi sought to negotiate with foreign officials and tried to leave Spain after realizing that his case was heading toward legal proceedings and that his information had not been transferred to the relevant court. This case reveals a serious security breach within the Moroccan intelligence system, as secrets from the agency have been leaked beyond national borders. It raises concerns about the protection of sensitive security information and threatens the country's reputation internationally.
