A court in Tangier, Morocco, has sentenced social media influencer Anas Doukkali, known as "Moulinex," and the mother of teenager Adam Benchekroun to six years in prison. The verdict, delivered on April 1, 2026, follows their conviction for assault, kidnapping, and other charges related to an attack on the 17-year-old.
The case dates back to an incident in late 2025, where Benchekroun was assaulted, tied up, and filmed by Doukkali. The video was later circulated online, causing widespread public outrage in Morocco. The court found that the teenager's mother was complicit in the assault.
In addition to the prison sentences, the court imposed fines on both defendants. The trial was closely followed in Morocco, highlighting concerns over influencer ethics and violence against minors. The court's decision was reported by multiple Moroccan news outlets following the verdict.
