The expulsion of sub-Saharan migrants entering Spain through Morocco has been discussed at the House of Representatives in Madrid. MPs are currently examining the possibility of reviewing The Citizens' Security law, which entered into force in 2015. Socialist MPs in Spain have submitted an amendment wishing to maintain the expulsion of sub-Saharan migrants, says El Faro de Ceuta and El Pais. «Migrants staying near the borders of Ceuta and Melilla» in an attempt to «cross the borders illegally will be expelled to prevent their entry to Spain», says the document. In August, the Spanish government expelled 116 sub-Saharan migrants to Morocco after they stormed Ceuta. Their rapid expulsion was denounced by NGOs and political parties close to the Sanchez cabinet. In October 2017, the European Court of Human Rights condemned Spain's policy after two migrants from Mali and Ivory Coast lodged a complaint against the country for being expelled to Morocco against their will. The Rajoy government appealed against the decision. The Court has been reconsidering the issue starting from September the 26th.
