Two Dutch nationals have been arrested over shooting in a cafe in the Moroccan city of Marrakech, police said on Saturday.
On Thursday, two hooded armed men opened fire in a coffee shop, leaving one person dead and two others wounded before fleeing the scene on a motorcycle, Xinhua news agency reported.
The two suspects, aged 29 and 24, are originally from the Dominican Republic and Suriname, police said in a statement.
The coordination operation made as part of international security cooperation revealed that the arrested have antecedents in cases of international drug trafficking, kidnapping, armed robbery and attempted homicide, the statement added.
The suspects entered Morocco about a week ago and they were staying in two separate hotels, the statement said.
