The Ombudsman will investigate the death of a Moroccan on hunger strike due to the lack of appointments to request asylum. The young migrant, of Moroccan origin, arrived in the Canary Islands and was housed in a hostel in San Fernando de Henares, a reception facility managed by the Red Cross.

Last Thursday afternoon he began to feel sick to his stomach and a few hours later he went into cardiorespiratory arrest, dying in the hospital at dawn. More than 30 groups have gathered in front of the San Fernandode Henares City Hall to denounce the abandonment of the institutions.
