Salim al-Saidi’s Life and Killing
The video recounts the life and killing of Salim al-Saidi, whom it describes as a highly trusted bodyguard of King Mohammed VI.
Background and Career
According to the account, al-Saidi grew up in a modest family and excelled at school. He worked first as a teacher and then in a notary’s office before studying law and training at the Royal Police Institute.
He served in Tetouan, where his work against criminals and drug traffickers reportedly brought him recognition and promotion. After helping arrest a major northern drug trafficker known as “El Rubio,” he was reportedly selected for royal security. He later guarded Lalla Salma and, in 2010, became Mohammed VI’s personal bodyguard.
The video also says that in 2007, several palace employees and guards were dismissed after allegedly taking bribes and leaking information about the King’s movements. It presents this shake-up as an opportunity for al-Saidi to take on more senior security roles.
The Attack
On 8 July 2011, while on leave and alone at home, al-Saidi was attacked by two men. He was shot during a struggle but managed to wound one attacker, who was captured nearby; the other escaped. Al-Saidi later died from his injuries in hospital.
Investigators reportedly found no evidence of theft and initially struggled to establish a motive. The captured man, identified in the subtitles as Mohammed al-Badawi, allegedly refused to name his accomplice.
Alleged Motive and Outcome
The video links the killing to revenge for al-Saidi’s earlier role in the arrest of “El Rubio.” It claims that after being released from prison, the drug trafficker hired al-Badawi to kill al-Saidi.
The fugitive accomplice was reportedly arrested in 2015. The account says he later confessed and was sentenced, but the subtitles give conflicting details about the sentences, so the precise outcome is unclear.
