Mohamed Tabet

Mohamed Mustapha Tabet, known by his nickname Hajj Hamid or Hajj Tabet, was a Moroccan serial rapist and former police commissioner who was allegedly involved in the kidnapping, rapes and assaults of more than 518 women in his Casablanca apartment from 1986 to 1993. The case became one of the most egregious examples of police corruption and sexual abuse in the country, as Tabet used his status to dismiss and cover-up evidence of his crimes. He was eventually be convicted and sentenced to death in March, 1993 and subsequently executed by firing squad the following September in 1993, after spending approximately 6 months on death row.
