Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto was appointed as chief Rabbi of Morocco with the blessing of King Mohammed VI of Morocco.
The ceremony was held in the Bet El Synagogue in Casablanca, attended by hundreds of people, including Moroccan officials who came under the guidance of the King of Morocco to honor the rabbi. In honor of the ceremony, a special prayer was also held in honor of the King of Morocco.
The Moroccan community, made up of thousands of Jews, provides services to about 100,000 Israelis who visit Morocco every year.
Rabbi Pinto will now have a diplomatic and Supreme Court Justice status in Morocco.
