CEUTA: Curious report! 70% of asylum seekers allegedly persecuted for homosexuality

Unusual data on asylum applications in Ceuta: according to the report, around 70% of recent applicants report being persecuted for their homosexuality. Previously, many are said to have mentioned economic reasons for flight. Spanish investigators are therefore examining the suspicion that individual migrants may have changed their data in order to improve their chances of protection. Most of the applicants are from Morocco, where same-sex sexual acts are punishable. The Spanish exclave of Ceuta on the North African coast is an important access point to the European Union.
