Such secrecy of the case was adopted due to the fact that during this tragedy “there were no signs of a crime in the actions of the Spanish security forces,” the prosecutor’s office said in a statement.

“We cannot conclude that the actions of the agents increased the risk to the life and physical integrity of the migrants, and therefore we cannot charge them with involuntary manslaughter,” the prosecutor’s office said.
