Body found off Melilla

Guardia Civil officers discovered the body of a sub-Saharan immigrant floating off the coast of Melilla yesterday.

The body was in the Aguadú area of the Spanish enclave, one of two places where it is possible and popular for immigrants to attempt to swim from Morocco to Spain.

An autopsy is being carried out to ascertain the exact cause of death but it is widely thought that the man died while attempting to swim to freedom as it were.
