Nowhere to Turn: State Abuses of Unaccompanied Migrant Children by Spain and Morocco [Arabic]

Summary: Every year thousands of Moroccan children, some as young as ten, enter Spain alone, without proper documentation. Sneaking past Moroccan and Spanish police at ports and border posts, they put their lives at risk to pursue their dreams for a better life. Some flee abusive families; others flee poverty and the lack of educational and employment opportunities at home. All too often they find violence, discrimination, and a dangerous life on the streets of unfamiliar cities. pdf: http://www.hrw.org/arabic/reports/2002/child-spain1.htm
