Police blame deaths on ‘violent’ migrants

The Civil Guard in Spain’s North African enclave in Ceuta have struck back at critics by releasing a video they say shows sub-Saharan would-be immigrants acting aggressively while attempting to cross the border during last Thursday’s tragic events which led to the death of 14 people, but opponents claim that it leaves many questions about police conduct unanswered.

A police spokesman said on Monday that the video shows a group of people rushing down from the nearby mountain of Dar Kuiba, from where they headed for the Buitz bridge, a border crossing point for goods traffic.

Later scenes show individuals from the thwarted group throwing stones towards Civil Guard officers.

The video has been released in response to accusations of police misconduct made by a group of NGOs who have filed an official complaint with Spain’s General Prosecutor’s Office.

According to Spanish daily El Mundo, the video omits the most controversial events of the day, when  armed officers are alleged to have fired rubber bullets at another group of immigrants who were attempting to swim around a breakwater to reach the beach.

This is said by survivors to have caused panic among the immigrants, many of whom were not strong swimmers.

The NGOs have also filed a complaint about a Civil Guard patrol who are said to have forced those who did swim as far as Spanish waters to return to Morocco instead of, as official procedure dictates, assisting them.

It was reported that the patrol not only refused to allow struggling swimmers to enter their boat but that they pushed them back into the water.

Police have refused to release video of these events.

The local MP, Francisco Antonio González, admitted that rubber bullets were fired and that tear gas grenades were used.
