Smuggled Boy in suitcase, suitcase closed

Madrid police recently opened a suspicious suitcase and found a child hiding inside. Via the Associated Press, on Thursday a spokesman for the Civil Guard police force says an eight-year-old boy from the Ivory Coast was being smuggled across the border to the small Spanish-governed territory of Ceuta by a 19-year-old woman from Morocco.

“When it was opened they found a minor, in a terrible state.”
