Moroccan police arrested a French citizen wanted in connection with last month’s Casablanca suicide bombings. Robert Antoine-Pierre, 28, was taken into custody in Tangiers, where he was living with his Moroccan wife, security officials said.
Police began searching for Antoine-Pierre after several other suspects said he gave orders in the attacks, officials said on condition of anonymity. Five nearly simultaneous attacks May 16 left 43 dead, including 12 Moroccan bombers.
