By the Numbers
Spanish Director General of Police Francisco Pardo informed Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska that there is no police report showing that Moroccan security forces planned or carried out the mass migrant entry into Ceuta on July 30-31. Pardo stated he was unaware of the report's existence, explaining that the Audiencia Nacional court had instructed investigators not to inform their superiors.
According to a report published by El Español newspaper, a National Immigration and Border Center (CENIF) report allegedly claimed that Moroccan agents (uniformed and in plain clothes) directed the entries and aimed to collapse the Spanish border control system. In contrast, the court this week authorized the sharing of the report, and the document does not link Moroccan security forces to the mass entry.
Marlaska demanded clarification on the report's accuracy and when the police possessed this information. According to police sources, the warning sent on July 29 was only a "frequent risk warning" and did not refer to the mass entry that would occur the next day.
