Desaparecidos a las puertas de Ceuta: “Se oían movimientos en el agua y, después, nada”

El testimonio de una familia marroquí que ha presentado una denuncia en España en busca del paradero de su hijo se suma a dos centenares de casos de desapariciones pendientes de investigación

Desaparecidos a las puertas de Ceuta: “Se oían movimientos en el agua y, después, nada”

Border-crossers wait at Ceuta's frontier, hoping for a ride to the city center. Among the vehicles, a poster catches their eye, featuring photographs of two young Moroccan men with smiles. The inscription reads: "Disappeared at sea, their family has no news. Your information could save lives." These words, written in Arabic, hang on the poster, held by their families who desperately hope someone might have seen them or stumbled upon a clue to their whereabouts.

EL PAÍS obtained the poster during a reporting expedition at the border and reached out to the family to inquire whether, after several weeks, they had received any news about their son's fate.
