Morocco’s regime is desperate to whitewash its dirty image in burning Pegasus scandal

The Moroccan regime has surrendered to defeat in the “Pegasus” spying scandal, in which its intelligence services hacked the cell phones of several officials in European countries and Algerians, according to the results of investigations carried out by a consortium of credible international newspapers.

After failing to win all the complaints it filed against press organizations and journalists in both France and Spain, the Moroccan regime finally gave up, deciding not to appeal the case it lost against the well-known Spanish journalist, Ignacio Sambrero, one of the most knowledgeable about the practices of the Alawite regime, as he spent more than two decades as a correspondent from Rabat for the major Spanish newspaper “El Pais”.

Ignacio Sambrero tweeted on his own account on the “X” platform (formerly Twitter): “The legal ordeal is over. The Kingdom of Morocco has decided not to appeal its complaint to the Supreme Court, after the Madrid Regional Court dismissed its claim against me for “bragging”, after I accused the Kingdom of Morocco of hacking my phone.”

It is not unlikely that decision-makers in the Kingdom of Morocco have finally been convinced that there is no point in continuing to chase anyone who wrote about the involvement of Moroccan intelligence in spying on the phones of thousands of people in Algeria, France, Spain and even Morocco, after he lost all the lawsuits he filed in both Madrid and Paris.

Since the outbreak of the “Pegasus” spying scandal, through the software developed by the Zionist company, ANSO, the Alaouite regime has tried to clear its name by filing many complaints against newspapers and journalists who wrote about the involvement of Moroccan intelligence, both in France, Spain and the Federal Republic of Germany, he lost a case against the newspaper “Le Monde”, another against the investigative newspaper “Media Bar” in France, and two complaints against the newspapers “Zeit Online” and “Süddeutsche Zeitung” in Germany, and the Spanish justice rejected another complaint against journalist Ignacio Sambrero.

The Moroccan regime has become a rogue regime in the eyes of European justice because of the many scandals in which it has been involved, as it has been proven to be involved in corrupting political practice in Europe by buying the consciences of many European deputies, including Italians, Belgians and Greeks, and the defendants have been proven guilty and imprisoned in Belgium, some of whom admitted to receiving bribes from Moroccan diplomats Mohamed Yassine Mansouri, who, along with Rabat’s ambassador to Poland, Abdelrahim Osmoun, was placed at the top of the list of those wanted by Belgian justice.
In this regard, a warrant was issued by the Belgian judiciary, which required investigators to travel from Brussels to Rabat in order to listen to the statements of the two Moroccan defendants.

The “Pegasus” scandal was not the first and will not be the last in the scandal-ridden career of the Moroccan regime. Last week, the Spanish newspaper “El Periódico” revealed a new scandal in which a network of four Moroccan intelligence spies stole military information from the city of Melilla and the Canary Islands, before fleeing after their act was discovered.

In May of this year, Belgian judicial authorities opened a judicial investigation related to suspicions of Moroccan interference in Belgium’s internal affairs.
The Düsseldorf court in Germany sentenced a Moroccan to prison about a year ago, while two Moroccans were brought to justice in the Netherlands on charges of espionage with Moroccan special services, in a scene that confirms that the Moroccan regime is not deterred by laws or norms in its relations with countries.
