Amnesty slates Spain over immigrant deaths
Amnesty International accused Spanish and Moroccan security forces yesterday of using excessive force and violating immigrants’ rights in trying to repel waves of Africans seeking to gain a foothold in Europe over the past month.
The London-based human rights group said it had gathered immigrants’ testimony during a 10-day visit to the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, located on Morocco’s northern coast, and to three Moroccan cities.
