Last week, the Criminal Chamber of First Instance of the city of Nador sentenced to ten years in prison a defendant involved in cases of kidnapping, detention and rape of three women, in addition to the described theft.
This decision comes after a series of investigations and trials that shed light on the crimes committed by the defendants.
The accused were prosecuted on the basis of complaints filed by three women before the competent public prosecutor’s office at the Nador Court of Appeal, where they confirmed that they had been kidnapped under the threat of using a means of transport, detained and raped. He was also charged with premeditated robbery, carrying a visible weapon, threats of violence and obstructing traffic, in addition to driving without a license.
These cases caused widespread controversy in local circles, especially since the accused had already been the subject of complaints from other citizens who had been robbed and who demanded that he be brought to justice. Despite the seriousness of the charges against him, the court acquitted him of certain acts, including the charge of detention and the offense of obstructing the passage of buses, while the public trial regarding driving without a license was abandoned due to the prescription.
This decision reflects the desire of the judiciary to combat serious crimes that threaten the security of individuals and society. These decisions remain a clear message that justice stands with anyone who dares to violate the rights of others or put their lives in danger.
