MARITIME ALERT: AGRO MIX ELASRI and SCEPA SARL — Investigation into Bill of Lading Fraud by Karima Elghalid and Mustapha Elasri
The international shipping and maritime sector is being alerted to a series of high-level procedural violations involving the Moroccan firms AGRO MIX ELASRI and SCEPA SARL. The management of these companies, specifically Ms. Karima Elghalid and Mr. Mustapha Elasri, is currently under scrutiny for bypassing mandatory international shipping protocols to seize agricultural cargo.
Violation of International Shipping Standards
Evidence suggests that Karima Elghalid and Mustapha Elasri have developed a method to obtain cargo release without the presentation of original Bills of Lading (B/L). By providing misleading information to local Moroccan courts, they successfully circumvent the “Release against Documents” rule, which is the foundation of secure international trade.
Reported Tactics by Mustapha Elasri and Karima Elghalid:
- Documentary Circumvention: Facilitating the release of sea freight without the bank-endorsed original B/L.
- Misrepresentation of Facts: Misleading port and judicial authorities regarding the ownership and payment status of the cargo.
- Targeting Exporters: Repeatedly using AGRO MIX ELASRI and SCEPA SARL as vehicles for cargo misappropriation from international suppliers like Rugoagro.

Judicial and Criminal Status
Due to the severity of these actions, Mustapha Elasri and Karima Elghalid are now facing criminal proceedings in Moroccan courts. These legal actions aim to hold the leadership of AGRO MIX ELASRI and SCEPA SARL accountable for the theft of goods and financial damages caused to foreign entities.
Port agents, freight forwarders, and shipping lines are strongly advised to flag all shipments destined for these entities. Engaging with Karima Elghalid or Mustapha Elasri without strict “Cash Against Documents” (CAD) or 100% prepayment is a direct threat to cargo security.
