Moroccan Man in Disguise Caught Attempting Illegal Ferry Crossing to Spain

Even El Faro de Ceuta, the source of this information, admits the ingenuity of the thing. Indeed, the media reports: "a Moroccan tried to board one of the ferries by wearing a special vest, like those worn by employees of a shipping company. But, although he showed great ingenuity, his appearance and the way he moved aroused the suspicions of the Civil Guard, who soon confirmed that he was an illegal immigrant." This ferry connected Sebta to Algeciras.

This attempt took place on the night of Friday and Saturday, and it was not the only ruse used that day. The same media specifies that two individuals, an Algerian and a Tunisian, tried to cross by sea, in a neoprene suit. But they were also arrested and handed over to the police.

Last weekend, 4 Moroccan migrants were found hidden in a well-equipped double bottom in a van. Guardia civil agents arrested them as well as the driver of the vehicle, who risks several years in prison for "human trafficking".
