Spain: 26 refugees leave Cueta
01 July 1995
Twenty six of the 270 refugees living in appalling conditions in Cueta (see Statewatch Vol. 5 no. 3) have been allowed to leave and enter Spain. They will have a work and residence permit for a year, which will be renewed if they get a job. For the time being the Red Cross and Caritas will organise housing. The permits were granted following protests outside the Spanish delegation in Cueta during which 11 refugees were hospitalised after police were called in.
