The Tangier police arrested on Sunday 20 individuals, including three women (one of European nationality), suspected of violating the state of health emergency and participating in the activities of a network which managed a gambling hall without authorization.

This operation was carried out on the basis of accurate information provided by the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance (DGST), said a press release from the National Police (DGSN).
