Spanish police say they have arrested 19 people suspected of murder and torture after more than 50 went missing from a migrant boat that was travelling from Senegal to the Canary Islands.
Police suspect some of the victims were accused of being "witches" after several incidents during the journey, including engine failure, bad weather and food shortages.
The wooden vessel was rescued south of Gran Canaria on 24 August with 248 survivors on board, the Spanish National Police said.
But officials believe that about 300 people were originally on the boat, and that some had been thrown overboard.
Survivors told police that some of their fellow passengers began "attacking dozens of people, beating and abusing them in various ways", a police statement said.
"In some cases, they threw migrants into the sea alive and refused to rescue those who fell in by accident."
Suspected killings were also documented "simply because some people protested or expressed their dissatisfaction with the conditions of the voyage", the statement said.
One male passenger died in hospital after being found seriously ill when the vessel was intercepted, according to police.
Those on board included people from Senegal, Guinea, Mali, Gambia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea-Bissau, local media reported.
All 19 suspects are in pretrial detention facing charges of facilitating irregular immigration, homicide, assault and torture.
Spain is one of the frontline entry points for irregular migration into Europe, with most entering via the Canary Islands.
Almost 47,000 migrants reached the archipelago in 2024, setting a record for a second year, but numbers have been far lower so far this year, the Spanish Interior Ministry said.

these destructive migrants are agents of social engineering and societal disruption.
A human form of the covid 19 virus, used by marxists to the same end.
If you are going to commit murder and mayhem on a closed vehicle, do it as you are leaving civilization and advanced authorities, not on your way into their hands.
The EU is partially responsible for these deaths. The fools encourage unrestricted immigration. Come one, come all.
Then everyone is surprised and horrified when “witches” get murdered, innocents get stabbed in the street, children are groomed then raped, etc.
It doesn’t do any good to throw witches into the sea; they float.

Did they weigh as much as a duck?
They smugglers who organized the flotilla should be shot.

And that is where have sound, legal immigration policies… to protect the citizens AND the immigrants….
How many women and children were raped in the desert, thanks to Zero, Brandon and KKKamala??
… and that is WHY we have legal immigration policies….
Why not leave them on the boat until they all ate each other?

This thread is useless without pix. /rimshot
Vandals and Huns and Goths OH MY! This continent says hold my beer.
Just bringing the rich and vibrant culture of Africa to the shores of Europe.
The difference now and then is the ‘kingdoms’ (for lack of a better word) didn’ invite the invaders, put them on welfare, and have the military forces protect the invaders from the locals.
“...“In some cases, they threw migrants into the sea alive...”
“...but I don’t want to go back to Africa...”
“...shut up and keep swimming...”
