Morocco has launched an inquiry into allegations that a French ex-minister was caught in an orgy with young boys on its territory.
Prosecutors in the city of Marrakesh are to investigate the claims, made by former French Education Minister Luc Ferry during a recent TV debate.
He refused to give any names.
Meanwhile a Moroccan child protection association has lodged a complaint in France for both “exploitation of minors” and “non-denunciation”.
A lawyer for the association, Don’t Touch My Child, said the complaint would be handled by Paris prosecutors, who are also investigating the case.
