Some Africans Trying to Enter Spain Reportedly Shot
EITB24, the "Basque news and information channel," reported September 29, 2005 that, "Two of five Africans killed when hundreds of migrants charged a razor-wire fence in an attempt to cross into one of Spain's enclaves in northern Morocco had bullet wounds, indicating they were shot from the Moroccan side of the fence, news reports said Thursday [September 29, 2005]."
EITB24 said, "Sources close to the investigation told the national news agency Efe that bullets had passed through the side of one immigrant and through one buttock of the other. They said the trajectory meant they could only have been fired from Morocco.
"The Interior Ministry could not immediately comment on the report," EITB24 said. Read more here.
