Security services in several European countries have opened an investigation into a wedding held on 13 August in Azghanghan, Nador province, honouring one of the most prominent fugitive smuggling barons.
Hundreds of guests attended, including businessmen, local officials and smuggling figures from the Netherlands, France, Spain and Dubai.
Circulated videos sparked wide controversy after internationally wanted individuals appeared, including members of the Mocro Maffia network and the Balkan gang.
European investigations focus on cross-border smuggling networks and their local ties, analysing images to gauge the protection these figures enjoy in Morocco.
