Immigrants Playing Deadly Game With Ferry Propeller In Bid to Enter Europe From Morocco

Migrants have now devised a very dangerous way of getting into Europe from Morocco. According to Spanish Police: Migrants are now hiding in ferry Engine propeller compartment risking their lives in a bid to start new lives in Europe.

Despite the extreme cold plus the up and down movement of the ferry due to waves, a pair of stowaways, aged 29 and 31, were caught this week after making the 20 mile journey from Tangier to southern Spain, just inches from the engine of a ferry. Another migrant Omar Iziel, 20, who was caught last week, had put on a wet-suit and managed to clamber into position before the ferry set off also from Tangier to the port of Tarifa, in the southern Spanish province of Cadiz. Two hours later after clinging on despite the cold and the rise and fall of the ship, the ferry arrived in Tarifa.
