La justica examinará la legalidad del uso del Puerto de Ceuta para la acogida de migrantes

El Pais reports on an ongoing judicial battle regarding the legality of using Ceuta's port for the accommodation of over 1,700 irregular migrants who arrived in the autonomous city during a mass influx on July 30 and 31. The Audiencia Nacional has accepted the appeal filed by the Unificado Sindicato de Policía (SUP) against the Transport Ministry's decision to allocate the site's lands for housing a portion of the foreigners who had been living in makeshift shelters on the beaches of El Trampolín and Benítez for the past 50 days.

The union argues that the procedure followed does not ensure safety for the officers guarding the camp, the migrants themselves, and other personnel involved.
