The accused after collecting the money failed to give same to the lady in Morocco.

He revealed that the complainant called the accused on phone to find out why the money was not given to the lady, but the accused took offence and started sending threatening messages to the complainant with the warning that, if he does not take time and calls to enquire about the money again, he will contract people to kill him and his entire family.

He explained that the victim then made a report to the Police but the whereabouts of the accused is not known to the Police, except that he was last seen in Rabat, Morocco.
