Moroccan Justice Minister Mohamed Ouahbi, a prominent political figure, is currently the subject of a judicial investigation. The probe, led by the Court of Appeal in Casablanca, centers on allegations of corruption, influence peddling, and forgery.
According to reports, the investigation was initiated following a complaint filed by a former official from the Ministry of Justice. The allegations suggest potential misconduct related to the management of judicial affairs and appointments.
Ouahbi, who leads the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM), has denied the accusations, describing them as politically motivated. The case has drawn significant attention within Morocco's political landscape.
The judicial process is ongoing, and no formal charges have been announced as of March 2026. The investigation underscores ongoing efforts and challenges within Morocco's anti-corruption framework.
