On June 11, 2026, Rabat officially inaugurated the permanent headquarters of the African Association of Prosecutors (AAP). The ceremony was attended by senior judicial officials from across the continent, including the President of the Public Prosecution Office of Morocco, El Hassan Daki, and the Secretary-General of the AAP, according to reports from Moroccan state media.
The new headquarters, located in the Hay Riad district of Rabat, is intended to serve as a central hub for coordinating efforts among African prosecutors. The AAP aims to enhance judicial cooperation, combat transnational crime, and promote the rule of law across Africa. The building was funded by the Moroccan government as part of its commitment to supporting African judicial institutions.
During the inauguration, Daki emphasized the importance of the AAP in fostering mutual legal assistance and extradition procedures among member states. He also highlighted Morocco's role in facilitating dialogue and capacity-building for prosecutors from different African nations. The AAP currently includes 54 member countries.
