Weird news - Hiding inside small spaces in the car
The urge to migrate to a richer place is irresistible. Places that have far better economies such as the United States and Europe see migration of a large number of people from poorer places such as Mexico or Africa, or from places that are seeing turmoil such as Syria. These migrations can cause incredible tension in the places where they are heading towards, and hence this migration is attempted to be controlled through border controls and by funneling people through legal channels. However, people cannot be stopped simply through such measures and there are ongoing efforts by people to enter a country by stealth and then hope that they will not be easily deported and might finally become a citizen. People attempt crossings by boat, inside vehicles, through deserts, even though some of these can be deadly and even result in the death of those doing the migration. Consider the following case where people are attempting to hide inside a vehicle, not in the trunk, but in the dashboard area and other places - wonder how they are even fitting (link to article):
A migrant was found hiding inside the dashboard of a car on the border between Morocco and the Spanish enclave of Melilla, trying to enter Europe illegally. The man, in his 20s, was one of four migrants found inside four separate vehicles within several hours on Saturday, said Spain's Civil Guard officers. Three more vehicles were stopped in Beni-Enzar, Morocco, during the weekend, the Daily Mail reported. Another stowaway was found in an engine compartment, a third under a rear seat and a fourth man in a dangerous position in a dumper truck, where they were in danger of being crushed. Two of these men had to be stabilised by doctors after they were found to be suffering from asphyxiation, disorientation and joint pain due to the conditions in which they travelled. A 15-year-old girl was also among those found.
