Among all the recent headlines from Africa, one of the most notable is the arrest of 57-year-old Ben Ziane Berhili in Casablanca, Morocco, for trafficking hashish. Berhili, recognized as the world’s most wanted smuggler, built much of his wealth by smuggling vast quantities of hashish. This high-profile arrest has sparked significant attention across three continents. The reports indicate that Berhili, who also owned a large dessert company, has been involved in hashish trafficking for years. His capture is a major relief to authorities and the public alike, as it represents the culmination of a complex multinational investigation.

The arrest was the result of an Italian-led operation, which also resulted in the seizure of 20 shipments containing over 300 tons of hashish. The new trafficking route discovered during this operation has become a hot topic among news outlets. Alongside Berhili’s arrest, another major story currently trending is Trophy Hunting, which has drawn significant public and media attention due to its impact on endangered species.
