Madrid (News Of The South) – There was drama in Spain on Thursday when Spanish police found a would-be migrant squashed into a hidden compartment under the dashboard of car that was attempting to enter Spain’s North African enclave of Melilla from Morocco.

Police officers decided to strip down a BMW sedan after noticing it being driven by two young men they suspected of being people smugglers, during the search they detected a heart beating.

They “carried out an exhaustive search and found a false compartment inside the dashboard,” from where the 19-year-old Guinean migrant emerged “in a very bad physical state,” police said.
The teenager was hospitalised.

The two people smugglers fled the scene but police later managed to apprehend a 23 old Spaniard who has since been charged for people trafficking.

Spain’s other North African enclave, Ceuta, was the scene of another bizarre clandestine attempt to enter the EU state when an eight-year-old Ivorian boy was found curled up in a suitcase.

Spanish media reported the child’s father, already living in Spain, had paid a young woman to carry the case through border control.
