Biography of a recently deceased Moroccan figure. He was a successful businessman in the construction sector and unsuccessful politician candidate. There are French and Arabic articles about him too, both thinly sourced and neither really establishing that he was notable. Mccapra (talk) 07:49, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Weak keep per Soman. Weak because I'm not particularly familiar with the sources, but seems to meet GNG. Also found some passing mentions in, . It is not unlikely more coverage exists in LOTEs such as french. Eddie891 Talk Work 19:04, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
