Morocco seeks over 50M dirhams in Amazir case
The trial of Abdelilah Bousaiz, the head of the Taza Regional Council, along with 11 other individuals involved in a criminal network specializing in fraud, forgery, and tax evasion, is being held in the summary offenses courtroom at the Fès Court. The session has been postponed to June 26 to give the defense time to prepare, amid civil claims exceeding 50 million dirhams, and requests for temporary release by the defendants' lawyers. These requests were opposed by the public prosecutor due to the seriousness of the crimes committed. The case arose after a tip-off about a network engaged in invoice forgery and exploiting companies to evade taxes. It was revealed that the network was involved in issuing fake invoices, forging certificates to secure public contracts, concealing income, and using counterfeit documents, all of which caused losses running into billions of dirhams for the state treasury.
