The Drug Trafficker Sofiane Hambli, Cavale since March, was arrested by the Moroccan authorities in a Tangier Clinic (Morocco), Monday, October 25, according to concordant sources. It was admitted after being assaulted in the streets of the city.
Character at the origin of the scandal that has shaken the Central Office for Suppression of Narcotic Traffic (OCTRIS), Sofiane Hambli, 46, has been a victim of aggression in Morocco on Saturday, October 23. The man, sought by French justice, was attacked in a rue de Tangier, north of the Cherifian kingdom. Victim of several swipes, or machete, he was hospitalized in a critical condition, in the coma, presenting wounds in the face and back. He was in possession of false papers giving him German identity. Its days would no longer be in danger.
At the end of 2015, following the discovery of seven tons of cannabis in full Paris, Sofiane Hambli had been publicly designated as the Commissioner François Thierry, former head of the OCTRIS. Sofiane Hambli is suspected of having benefited from this privileged relationship to promote their traffic. The case caused the fall of the police officer, the redesign of the OCTRIS, and the judicial repercussions in cascade.
A privileged interlocutor
Native of Mulhouse, Sofiane Hambli has established himself in the landscape of French banditry as a major narcothaftus, capable of importing cannabis into industrial quantities, thanks to its contacts in Morocco, and its relays in Spain. According to the specialized services, Hambli began its ascent in the east of France, alongside Moufide Bouchibi, other high-flying trafficker, which was recently sentenced to sixteen years in prison in Bordeaux for a series of cannabis imports after several years of caval.
The two accomplices have blocked in the years 2010, before becoming fierce competitors. This situation prompted Commissioner Thierry, a key specialist of the fight against narcotics, to recruit Hambli as an informant, visiting him in a prison in Spain.
In his course dotted with convictions, escapes and anticipated releases, Sofiane Hambli has become a privileged interlocutor of the OCTRIS, with the objective of the complete dismantling of import channels. The Board has completed a series of operations throughout the French territory, between 2012 and 2015, under the name MYRMIDON code. The method consisted of following drug convoys from their departure, to intercept them at the time of deliveries. This by using the technique of “monitored deliveries”, that is to say followed by the police, under the control of justice.
