The DST is mired in many torture allegations and scandals . As early as 2002 it operated the Temara interrogation centre , a black site for extraordinary renditions and interrogations on behalf of the United States . After the 2003 Casablanca bombings , the DST became involved in controversial interrogation methods to obtain confessions from suspects . After the 2011 Arab spring protest the secret detention centre is said to have been relocated to the Ain Aouda secret prison . Additionally , it has been revealed that the United States paid Morocco US $ 20 million to build a secret detention centre sometime in 2004 – 2006
