A Moroccan official body accuses Spanish police of inflicting “bad treatment and aggression” on migrants in Ceuta

A harsh report from a Moroccan official body accuses the Spanish police forces of having inflicted ill-treatment and of attacking migrants who arrived en masse in the autonomous city on July 30 and 31. Furthermore, it blames the local authorities of Ceuta for having provided insufficient attention to migrants, especially children and young people, within a contingent of around 72,000 people who burst into the city in just 48 hours.

The report comes from the National Human Rights Council of Morocco (CNDH), and was presented in a preliminary and not yet definitive version on August 8. The CNDH depends on the Administration of Morocco and was the author of another report that attributed responsibility for the deaths in the Melilla fence stampede to the Spanish police in 2022.
