Police report on Ceuta: "prior planning" and active guidance of Moroccan forces
A police report on the invasion of Ceuta points to "prior planning" and "active guidance of the Moroccan Forces", ruling out involvement of criminal networks.
Police report points to state coordination in Ceuta invasion
According to Google News ES — Crime (es), a police report on the mass entry of migrants into Ceuta contains expressions of notable gravity: "prior planning", "active guidance of the Moroccan Forces" and an operation that was "beyond the reach" of human trafficking networks.
The document, cited by El Mundo, rules out that traditional criminal organisations were behind the operation. The terminology used in the report suggests coordination that would have exceeded the organisational capacity of conventional criminal groups.
The verbatim quotes from the report point to direct or indirect intervention by elements linked to Moroccan security forces, although the document does not establish explicit political responsibilities. The phrase "active guidance" is the one that has concentrated most attention among analysts, for its diplomatic implications between Spain and Morocco.
The conclusions of the police report fuel the debate about the nature of that migration crisis and the role of states in movements of people across the borders of North Africa.
