A 24-year-old young man died on Sunday October 27 in Agadir, after being bitten by his dog two weeks ago. The animal had been attacked by stray dogs and contracted rabies without its owner’s knowledge.

“The young man, named Yassine, aged 24 and residing in the El Khyam district of Agadir, on Avenue Ibn Al Haitam, neglected to properly treat the bite, which led to the deterioration of his state of health two weeks after being bitten” by his pet dog, confides a local source.
