The Prosecutor's Office ignores the UN request to take in a Gambian boy who claims to be a minor. Eight days after the Committee on the Rights of the Child ruled that Spain must protect the adolescent, the Ombudsman suggests to the public ministry and the Community of Madrid that they place him in a center now.
Ibrahim's case reflects the situation that dozens of young people from Gambia are experiencing in Spain. Given the alleged passport fraud of citizens of that nationality, who supposedly falsify their age in order to be accepted as minors, the police have activated all their radars.
