The National Police have injected a new plus to the universe of illegal immigration that is called to mark a before and after in investigations with deaths in between. For the first time, he has attributed intentional homicide - rather than reckless - to those responsible for a mafia, understanding that they were aware that the boat in which seven people died was not in a position to go into the sea due to the high risk it posed for the life of all travelers.

After concluding that they forced the

to go up at the point of a razor, the Central Unit for Illegal Immigration Networks and Documentary Falsehoods (Ucrif) has placed the proceedings in the hands of a judge, who will be in charge of certifying the new trend that the Agents point out and trust that it will germinate to lay the foundations for future issues of the same characteristics.

The shipwreck of the patera occurred in the early morning of November 26, 2019, 30 miles from Melilla after a violent shipment on a beach in

(Morocco).

None of the migrants wanted to get into the canoe when, on the shore, they noticed that there was water inside the boat and that the engine was barely working.

They had to embark after being intimidated with knives and sticks at the urgency of two members of the organization to begin the journey that, as on other occasions, was to end on the Spanish coast at dawn.

Once en route, the engine stopped working and the boat began to sink.

Seven immigrants from Bangladesh died and their bodies were thrown into the water by the rest of the companions to release weight.

They had all paid 12,000 euros for a trip that had started a year and a half earlier.

From Bangladesh

The criminal organization, according to the complex investigation carried out by the Central Ucrif, had a great operational capacity, stability and permanence over time and was based in

, India, Mali,

, Algeria, Morocco and Spain.

The device has dealt a severe blow to illegal immigration.

The three members of the Spanish branch were arrested and one of them has entered prison.

The leader is based in Bangladesh, he is the backbone of this network and has a man of confidence in each country in which the plot is rooted, who guaranteed the border crossing of migrants either by car, on foot through the mountains. or by plane with passports.

The penultimate stop of the trip before reaching Europe was Algeria, where the trafficking of people from Bangladesh was "monopolized", as pointed out by the Central Ucrif.

A man "of great weight" within the organization who, however, "never showed himself," gave them shelter and facilitated their passage to Morocco, the country where the person in charge of the Moroccan-Spanish plot operated, which, in his opinion Once, he had fixed his residence in Madrid.

The migrants were housed in Fez (Morocco) in a block of flats from which they did not leave for six months.

Then they were led to the beach at dawn, heading to Spain.

The Chafarinas islands, the coastline of Almería, Malaga or Alicante were, according to the researchers, the preferred destinations for the cayucos during the time that the plot has been active.

Madrid and Alicante

The Ucrif fatally wounded this network on December 1, when it arrested the three members of the Spanish branch in Alicante and Madrid.

After the shipwreck in 2019, the man who led the last leg of the trip decided to leave Madrid and for a time stayed in Dubai and Morocco.

He returned last October, when he believed he was safe from the investigators' magnifying glass, but the agents located him in Alicante.

The activity that the Police attributes to the organization makes it estimate that, at least, in the last year it has been able to pocket more than one million euros.

Europol and the Provincial Brigade of Foreigners and Borders of Melilla have also participated in the operation of the Central Ucrif.

The court continues the proceedings of the case and the police operation is still open.
