Spain illegally pushing back migrants to Morocco
Spanish newspaper El País has shown this week that the Spanish Guardia Civil (Spanish policing authorities) continues to push back migrants to Morocco from Melilla, the Spanish city on the northern coast of Morocco. These renewed revelations were made through the disclosure of a recorded conversation on the night of 26 April 2013 where two Spanish officers agree how to hand over to the Moroccan authorities a group of migrants who had jumped the fence between Melilla and Morocco some hours earlier. The push-back took place through the only part of the fence that is not filmed by security cameras.
