After visiting the fence, the government partners believe that “there were deaths in Spanish territory”, something that Marlaska denies over and over againA BBC documentary has questioned the official figures: it raises the number of deaths to 24 and speaks of 70 missingUnidas Podemos It does not focus on it, and focuses on requesting an investigation commission to clarify the facts. There were deaths in territory controlled by Spanish agents and almost five months later, it is not known exactly how many. That is why it is necessary to investigate what happened, “so that it does not happen again”, affirms the deputy of United We Can and general secretary of the PCE Enrique Santiago. The Bildu deputy Jon Iñarritu, who, like Santiago, has seen the images that are kept in the Civil Guard Command of Melilla, has drawn the same conclusion and in his case, assures that it is a “Spanish operational zone”, in “Spanish territory “. His statements contradict the version of the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande Marlaska, who from the beginning and until this very Monday, has been insisting that “there have been no deaths in Spanish territory.” Marlaska insists on his refusal, he has come out to defend the Civil Guard, but he is cornered, on the left and on the right. Everyone wants more explanations. Some by way of appearance -PP and Bildu-, while others focus on the Investigation Commission to clarify “unacceptable” facts. Thus, it seems difficult for the minister to avoid explanations, be it one way or another. United We Can not focus on the Minister of the Interior, and prefers to talk about that investigation commission, which he registered together with the rest of the partners of the Government, of course it is difficult for Fernando Grande Marlaska not to pass through that commission. However, Bildu and the PP do agree this time and also point out the need for him to appear in Congress. The abertzale deputy Jon Iñarritu asks him not to “do the trick”, while the PP accuses him of “lying”. Everything, after a visit by eight deputies from six parties who visited the Melilla border post with Morocco in Chinatown on Monday, where everything happened. They are representatives of the Interior Commission and among them are partners of the Government and also the PP, although neither Vox nor Cs were present. The delegation of the Interior Commission has been able to see the border crossing where everything happened and the videos of the Civil Guard Command. After that visit, its participants have recounted what the place was like, a “small and narrow” place where 500 people were crowded together, and where “it was difficult to survive”, as reported by the ERC deputy María Carvalho, who has put the focus in which “470 people were returned hot” to Morocco. Something that allows the so-called Gag Law and that for the Republican group it is necessary to reverse. The BBC documentary Four and a half months have passed since that avalanche in which, according to the first information received by this newspaper, there were more than forty dead. Finally, the Ministry of the Interior put it at 23. It seemed that the storm had abated, but a BBC documentary last week revived it. There was talk of 24 dead and up to 70 missing. For their part, organizations that defend Human Rights speak of 37. Total, that four and a half months later, it is not even clear how many deaths there were, there are unidentified deaths and relatives who do not know what has become of the young people who abandoned the harshness from their countries to find hell in Melilla, and in many cases, death. Spanish territory, or controlled by Spain The deputies who spoke this Monday with the Civil Guard, and later with the media, have come out convinced that the deaths occurred in Spanish territory, or at least “controlled by Spain”, however, it is Morocco which has led the management of these deaths. The avalanche of migrants broke the gateway to Spanish territory at the border crossing. According to the BBC documentary there, in the Spanish courtyard, there were deaths. He claims that the Moroccan agents entered that area and took them to their territory. Interior denies it over and over again and the delegation of deputies confirms that there is no image to prove it, but there were deaths in territory that the Spanish forces should have controlled. The PP, at that point, denounces the lack of means of the agents, who for three hours -according to what they have told the parliamentarians- were on the sidelines because they were guarding the 470 detainees after the first jump. They assure that when they went to the courtyard of Spanish control, where according to the complaints there were deaths, there was no one left, that they did not see the dead or Moroccan agents on their land and that the images, since there are walls, do not allow them to see what happened there. That is why Podemos and Bildu request that investigation commission, although Iñárritu is also committed to the appearance that the PP supports. Anti-riot material The deputies, who have seen the images of that day again, with 2,000 migrants trying to reach Spanish soil, have confirmed that the agents used riot control material: 86 tear gas canisters, 28 gas canisters, 65 rubber balls, 270 salvo shots, 41 large tear gas canisters, 12 aerosol cans. Undetermined Those responsible for the command have been those who have detailed their use that day. Sub-Saharans “vetoed” to seek asylum In a conversation with Nius, Enrique Santiago denounces that one of the main problems is that those who flee from countries like Sudan – beleaguered by incessant dictatorial coups d’état – or Chad, which is experiencing the same situation, do not get asylum, even though they should. Santiago emphasizes that they are pushed back in Morocco. Something that does not happen with citizens of other countries where its inhabitants are not black, for example, Syria. For him, that is one of the big problems, access to asylum for people fleeing certified oppression and who, however, because they came from Black Africa, cannot reach Spain. They are the protagonists of most of the jumps to the fence. In the case of June 24, it ended in an “unacceptable” tragedy, which is neither the first, nor does it seem that it will be the last, unless action is taken on the matter.
