The scandal generated following two escapes in the last two weeks of nine and 17 migrants held in those facilities led to the intervention of the Ministry of the Interior, which this Tuesday assumed the coordination of the cleaning tasks and this Wednesday tried to transfer them to a Internment of Foreigners (CIE) in the capital fifty people, of the more than 360 – among them fifteen minors – who collapsed the facilities. This newspaper has asked the ministry headed by Fernando Grande-Marlaska regarding the health situation in the rooms, in some of whose areas they have acted in recent days. In the Interior they assure that they will disinfect once more in the next few hours.
“We are constantly monitoring the evolution of this case,” declares a spokesperson for the organization led by Ángel Gabilondo. And she remembers that they have already started two actions in this regard: “One with the Secretary of State for Migration (Ministry of Migration) and another with the General Directorate of the Police [Ministerio del Interior] and, today, we are waiting for responses to the suggestions in these writings,” they warn.
According to the argument used by prosecutor Cristina Pírfano to paralyze the transfer of people to Aluche, “detention in the CIE is a measure provided for in article 62 of the law for foreigners in an irregular situation once morest whom an administrative resolution of expulsion (or an expulsion file has been initiated, in certain cases), for the execution of which such a measure is considered necessary.

Four were those inadmissible among the more than 360 people who are still detained at the airport, and four were those who were transferred to the Aluche CIE this Wednesday.
