Moroccan authorities have arrested Kassim Tajideen, a top financier of the Lebanese Hezbollah movement, and plan to extradite him to the United States, a Moroccan security source close to the case said to Reuters on Tuesday.
Tajideen was arrested on March 12 at Casablanca airport on an arrest warrant issued two days earlier by Interpol's Washington office for fraud, money laundering and financing of terrorist activities, the source told Reuters.
