Body found in Algeria: is it Abdellatif Akhrif, the missing Moroccan player?

Moroccan authorities are working to confirm the identity of the body found on one of the beaches of Oran in Algeria. Is it the body of Abdellatif Akhrif, a player who played for Ittihad Tangier in the Moroccan first division?

Soon a DNA analysis will be carried out to confirm that the body of the player found on the coast of Oran is that of Abdellatif Akhrif, a player who played for Ittihad Tangier in the Moroccan first division. The Royal Gendarmerie of Tetouan contacted the victim’s parents to take DNA samples from the mother, we learned. These samples will then be sent to the central laboratory in Rabat. If confirmed, steps will continue to repatriate the body so that it can be buried in Morocco, more precisely in the city of Tangier, the player’s birthplace.
