Key takeaways
Life and Career
Salim Abdellah Saidi, described in the video as King Mohammed VI’s personal bodyguard, was born in Marrakech in 1964 to a modest family. After earning his baccalaureate, he worked as a teacher and later as a notary. He then studied law in Rabat and joined the Royal Police Institute in 1988.
Posted to Tetouan, Saidi became known for refusing bribes and enforcing the law rigorously. According to the video, he led an operation in 1996 that arrested a major drug trafficker known as “El Rubio.” The operation dismantled El Rubio’s network, and El Rubio received a ten-year prison sentence.
Royal Security
The video says Saidi’s record brought him to the attention of senior royal-security officials. Following a 2007 palace security scandal involving leaks about the King’s movements and the removal of staff, Saidi was assigned to royal-protection duties. He reportedly guarded Princess Lalla Salma before becoming Mohammed VI’s principal personal bodyguard in 2010.
The Killing
While on leave in July 2011, Saidi returned to his home in Rabat and encountered two intruders, one of whom he reportedly recognized. During a struggle, he was shot in the abdomen but managed to seize the gun and wound one attacker in the knee. The other attacker fled. Saidi died in hospital three days later, after surgery.
Investigation and Alleged Motive
The wounded attacker was identified as Mohamed El-Badaoui, a former soldier and palace gardener with a criminal record. He was sentenced to death but initially refused to identify the person who had sent him.
The video says investigators continued pursuing the case and identified El Rubio as the alleged mastermind in 2015. It claims El Rubio and El-Badaoui had met in prison and planned the killing as revenge for Saidi’s role in El Rubio’s arrest. According to the account, El Rubio was also sentenced to death.
Central Message
The narrator portrays Saidi as a courageous, incorruptible officer whose commitment to duty cost him his life. The story is presented as a warning about the dangers of confronting organized crime.
Presenter/contributor: One unnamed narrator.
