Two Moroccan courts Monday began hearing suspects after one of the country's biggest drug swoops netted about 100 people, a source close to the investigation said. A military court in Rabat started questioning some 70 members of the army and police force, while 30 civilians began appearing before a Casablanca court. The detainees were suspected of drug trafficking, corruption and failing to report criminal offences. The network smuggled drugs from the northern city of Nador to Spain and other European countries, the source said. He described the arrests, which began in January, as a big blow to drug trafficking in Morocco. The north African country is the world's second biggest hashish producer after Afghanistan.
