The Moroccan Coast Guard arrested two Spanish individuals involved in an attempt to transport several irregular migrants on board a speedboat.

According to Hespress AR sources, Moroccan authorities intercepted the Spanish boat at sea on the coast of the village “Zahr Maghara”, eight kilometers away from Fnideq, where it was in the process of transferring 10 irregular migrants.

There were two Spaniards on board, one of whom came from the city of Ceuta, as they were preparing to secretly transport the migrants towards the southern coast of Spain.

It is expected that the security authorities have begun to investigate the detainees, after the boat and the Spanish individuals, as well as the arrested immigrants, moored and were guarded at the port of Tangier Med.
