Mustapha El Harouchi, the former president of the Moroccan football club Hilal Nador, is currently in custody at the National Brigade of Judicial Police (BNPJ) in Casablanca. According to initial reports, El Harouchi has claimed to have family ties with Hicham Jerando, a fugitive believed to be in Canada.
El Harouchi reportedly admitted to re-establishing contact with Jerando in recent days, though the nature and purpose of this renewed communication remain under investigation. The case is part of a broader probe into Jerando's alleged criminal activities.
Authorities have not yet released official details on the charges against El Harouchi or the specific links to Jerando. The investigation is ongoing, and further updates are expected as the judicial process unfolds.
