The Police asked the Generalitat of Catalonia to quantify the expenses of a Gambian under guardianship to investigate him for fraud. The Lleida Immigration Brigade requested the cost of accommodation and maintenance for a young man who was in a center as a minor and who, according to the Prosecutor's Office, turned out to be of legal age.

The police initiative was designed for young people who are arriving from Gambia to the Canary Islands. Police maintain widespread suspicion that Gambians use false passports to pass themselves off as minors.
