MADRID, 7 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Association for the Civil Guard (APROGC) has asked the Government to publicly defend the agents who intervened on June 24 in the Melilla fence jump, in which at least 23 migrants died, and to demand that Morocco readmission of migrants who enter Spain in a “violent” manner, referring to the 1992 Agreement.
APROGC has requested that, as a measure to prevent new jumps to the migrant fence, these “be systematically placed at the border by virtue of the Readmission Agreement that Spain and Morocco signed in 1992”, recalling that it is a measure that they have been asking for since years ago.
“Despite the supposed good relations between the two countries, Spain is not capable of making Morocco comply with said agreement. If it were applied, the violent outbursts would disappear and the rights of immigrants would be scrupulously respected before being placed at the border,” APROGC reasons. coinciding with the visit of deputies to Melilla after the BBC documentary.
“These deaths could have been avoided and the cause of these unfortunate events is once again the pull effect caused in part by the hypocrisy of those who now accuse us,” APROGC has defended, which also recalls the “injustice” suffered by the agents who acted in Tarajal in 2014 in which 14 migrants died.
