Miguel Ángel Pérez Triano, the Spanish government delegate in Ceuta, resigned on Monday, two months after thousands of migrants crossed from Morocco. He claimed he faced relentless harassment since 30-31 July, including receiving a funeral wreath, which he described as violence affecting his family and friends.
