Rabat: The Moroccan police arrested three people with suspected links to the Islamic State (IS) militant group.
The suspects, aged between 31 and 40, were arrested in the northern city of Tangier, said a statement by the Central Bureau for Judicial Investigations, Morocco's intelligence bureau.
They were preparing to carry out "dangerous terrorist projects aimed at undermining the security and stability of Morocco," the statement added.
