Police services have arrested four people of Spanish nationality suspected of having come to Dakhla with the intention of disrupting the proceedings of the Crans Montana Forum scheduled for 12–14 March. The security services, having followed these people, immediately suspected them of bad intentions.

It therefore turned out that the suspicions were not fortuitous. The four Spaniards, who had landed in Dakhla mixed in with a group of tourists from the Canary Islands, had allegedly held meetings with activists belonging to what are called the internal separatists with a view to preparing actions intended to disrupt the forum's proceedings.

According to sources close to this file, they were allegedly sent to Laâyoune, from where they are to take a plane to Spain.
