The General Directorate of National Security categorically denied the misleading news published by some accounts on social media, which claimed that “a supposed death was recorded as a result of a criminal assault, of which a person responsible for guarding the Prince Moulay Abdellah Sports Complex in Rabat was a victim, coinciding with the final match of the Africa Cup of Nations football.”
A statement from the Directorate affirmed that the national security services “did not record any deaths of a member of the private security, nor among those responsible for collecting the balls, nor did they initiate any examination procedures for the body of a person who died due to events related to sports hooliganism, information which was confirmed after reviewing various health institutions.”
