SPAIN: Police cooperation
artdoc March=1995
French Minister of the Interior, Charles Pasqua and the Spanish
Minster of Justice and Interior, Juan Alberto Belloch, agreed at
a meeting in Madrid on a package under which Spain would control
and place under surveillance Islamic fundamentalists in return
for French collaboration in the fight against ETA.
Pasqua said that members of the Algerian Islamic Salvation
Front expelled from France were entering Spain illegally. Sources
in the Civil Government of the Province of Gipuzkoa (the Basque
border province to France) said that the `Security Forces' had
been increasing border controls strictly applying the provisions
of the Law on Aliens. The Civil Government represents the central
Spanish government in province and working to the Ministry of
Interior and Justice oversees so-called `public order'.
