Eleven stowaways, including a 12 year old boy, are in the custody of the National Police after they were found hiding in the double bottom of a trailer which had been brought into Málaga Port on a Moroccan merchant ship last Friday night. Diario Sur reports the ship had been subcontracted by a Spanish company.
The paper indicates that all claimed to be underage and from Algeria, although officers believe them to be Moroccan and suspect that only three are minors. Bone testing was due to take place to determine their age.
Another two stowaways had arrived at the port just hours earlier on board the Melilla ferry.
A group of four migrants from Sub Saharan Africa were intercepted off Estepona on Monday.
