Moroccan Territory Surveillance Directorate officer tried for arson

An officer of the Territory Surveillance Directorate "DST" (counterespionage) appeared before the Rabat-appeal court for arson, theft and destruction of public authority documents.

Events date back to Oct. 29 when the officer indicted entered at night the DST accounting office to steal the equivalent of $4,000 US in dirhams and another amount in foreign currencies before setting fire to the office to leave no clues behind.
