Moroccan Court Sentences Crypto Kidnapper to 25 Years
A Moroccan court has sentenced Mohamed Bajou to 25 years in prison for orchestrating kidnappings of crypto figures in France.
The Tangier appeals court ruling follows a series of abductions that included David Balland, co-founder of hardware-wallet maker Ledger.
For UAE crypto holders, the Bajou case adds to a pattern of physical targeting of wealthy digital asset owners as crypto ownership becomes more visible.
