Mohamed Bellahrach, 59, from Nador, is the Moroccan spy who is allegedly at the heart of the corruption scandal in the European Parliament that Morocco is accused of. At the General Directorate of Studies and Documentation (DGED), the Moroccan intelligence service, he is known by the code name M118. According to letters revealed by French hacker Chris Coleman, he was the secretary of Mohamed Yassine El Mansouri, the head of the DGED.

Mohamed Bellahrach is, according to the Belgian newspaper Le Soir, the « handling officer » of a Moroccan diplomat nicknamed « The Giant », who was in contact with the former European MP Pier Antonio Panzeri alias « the Brain », arrested in December as part of an investigation into the corruption scandal which rocked the European Parliament.
Mohamed Bellahrach is a long-time acquaintance of the Spanish National Intelligence Center (CNI) and the General Directorate for Internal Security (DGSI), the French counter-espionage agency, according to sources close to the investigation led by the Belgian justice system. He has operated in both countries over the past decade, first in Barcelona and then at Orly airport in Paris.

The corruption plot fomented by Morocco was allegedly led, on the European side, by the Italian socialist Pier Antonio Panzeri, who for years held the presidency of the Maghreb and Human Rights subcommittees in the European Parliament. His interlocutor was Abderrahim Atmoun, Morocco’s ambassador to Poland and, since 2016, a member of parliament for a ruling Moroccan party, but in 2019 the agent Mohamed Bellahrache succeeded the diplomat.

It was he who organized that year and in 2021 the visits to Rabat of Panzeri and the Italian socialist Andrea Cozzolino, who replaced him at the head of the Maghreb subcommittee. In the Moroccan capital, they met with officials of the DGED, including Mansouri, its top boss, according to the details of the Belgian police investigation leaked to the press. Cozzolino has not yet been charged. In 2013, Naima Lamalmi, wife of agent Mohamed Belahrech, opened the Aya Travel travel agency in Mataró (Barcelona), with two other partners, Atiqa Bouhouria, wife of the spy Noureddin Ziani — expelled from Spain at the request of the CNI. in May 2013 – and Naziha El Montaser, married to Abdallah Boussouf, secretary general of the Council of the Moroccan Community Abroad (CCME), an immigration control body. The three husbands of these women have in turn founded another travel agency, Elysée Travels, but in Rabat.
Mohamed Belahrech’s passage through France, just after his incursion into Barcelona, is much more serious. There he managed to recruit, through a Franco-Moroccan who ran a security company at Paris’s Orly airport, a French police officer assigned to the border police (PAF) department. He gave Belahrech up to 200 files of individuals suspected of Islamist radicalization with personal data, their friends, their travels, etc.
In exchange, the police officer and his wife received an all-expenses-paid vacation in Morocco and Angola and a transfer of 17,000 euros to their current account, which they were unable to justify. Arrested in 2016, they were tried for corruption, breach of professional secrecy, etc. The French police were unable to arrest Mohamed Belaahrech, who, while traveling to France, declared an address in Alsace where he had never been. In 2016, the French courts issued an arrest warrant against him for “active corruption.” This did not prevent him from continuing to devote himself to espionage.

In a letter, he sent his colleague Mourad El Ghoul a press release from the CFCM. Was he in contact with Mohamed Moussaoui?
Bellahrach was particularly interested in the CFCM and Islam in France.
