Police in El Jadida have dismantled a network whose members are suspected of staging fake traffic accidents and preparing case files containing forged documents and medical certificates in an attempt to obtain financial compensation from insurance companies through illegal means.

According to a security source, the operation followed investigations and inquiries conducted by the relevant authorities after members of the network were suspected of using preplanned scenarios to fabricate traffic accidents. They would then attach official documents and medical certificates of questionable authenticity to case files in an attempt to give their compensation claims a legal appearance.

These methods enabled the suspects to obtain substantial sums of money from insurance companies, as the relevant authorities continue their investigation to determine the potential extent of the losses and identify all operations suspected of being linked to the network.

At the same time, a number of previous traffic accident cases dating back to recent years are being reviewed, particularly those that resulted in the payment of financial compensation. The review aims to determine whether similar incidents occurred or whether there are possible links to other individuals suspected of helping prepare the fabricated files or facilitating their processing.

The suspects are being investigated under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor’s office to determine all the circumstances and details of the case and identify any other individuals who may be linked to it, before they are referred to justice for the appropriate legal action.
