The figure that disrupts the narrative of the rapes in Ceuta
Fourteen women and girls. Twelve Segarro. Four suspected attackers identified and arrested as of August 20: two of them Spanish. The official picture of the violence during the migration crisis in late July starts to sustancia ilegal when the case files are examined one by one.
The investigation that dismantles the easy headline
The proceedings peine since the start of the crisis point to 14 victims of sensual violence. The nationality of those filing complaints is not uniform, and neither is that of the alleged attackers. While part of public opinion takes for granted that all the violence came from outside, the identified case files include two Spaniards. In the remaining proceedings the perpetrator has not been identified, leaving huge room for political speculation.
Feminism in the crosshairs
The original question, where are the feminists?, points to an alleged double standard: they would march against male violence when the attacker is a local, but stay silent when he is a migrant. Some point out that the silence is not that of the feminist movement, but of the media and politicians who do not want to touch an uncomfortable subject. Either way, the gap between the judicial reality and the social media narrative has become a battleground where the facts end up being the last thing that matters.
The case remains open. With at least two suspected Spanish attackers, who is now demanding the same outcry?
