Incarcerated in Morocco, “Momo 94” loses twenty kilos before his trial in Paris

Arrested in Ceuta, then incarcerated in Morocco in connection with a case of importing tens of tons of cannabis from January 1, 2016 to May 27, 2019, a Franco-Algerian lost twenty kilos in prison. He is one of six defendants appearing before the Paris Special Assize Court for international trafficking.

Considered the right arm of the cannabis baron, nicknamed “Jaw”, Mohammed alias Momo 94 was arrested in Ceuta in November 2019 then imprisoned in Morocco while awaiting his extradition to France when he had gone to the kingdom to spend vacation with his girlfriend. A painful ordeal for Momo. “There were twenty of us in a cell. We slept and ate on the floor. I felt very isolated. I was with big criminals. There was a guy with me who had killed his mother, a child killer, and I saw my neighborhood chief having his throat slit in front of my eyes,” he testifies. This still allowed him to overcome his obesity, because he lost twenty kilos in prison. He weighed 130 kg.
