الطب الشرعي الجنائي في المغرب: واقع وآفاق

The Moroccan legislative authority has authorized the criminal investigator to carry out a set of measures that might help him to find and verify evidence. These include the assignment of experts such as a Forensic Medicine doctor. The National Council for Human Rights recommended that forensic medicine in Morocco must be organized and that laws must be laid down regulating the practice of forensic medicine there. In light of the scarcity of references to the study of forensic medicine in Moroccan legislation, we have completed this study, whose content is summarized in the first section of the study, the requirements of the Moroccan Low of Criminal Procedure as a frame of reference for the judiciary, which empowers the judiciary to delegate a forensic doctor when it faces criminal cases that are difficult scientifically, technically and professionally without the assistance of specialists. The second section of the study has been allocated to the prospects of Forensic Medicine in Morocco. This involves a study of the requirements of law related to the practice of Forensic Medicine in Morocco. In accordance with this law, we have identified the specific legal tasks of the Forensic Medicine doctor and the agencies that exclusively carry out forensic medicine tasks. We have also identified the bodies that supervise the proper functioning of the forensic profession.
