The eight year-old boy was apparently being smuggled from Morocco into Spain by a courier-a 19 year-old girl who was paid by his father, to bring him into a Spanish controlled territory in North Africa.
Spain normally sends illegal immigrants from Africa to the Spanish controlled territories of Ceuta and Melilla, both located in northern Africa.
The boy was in a bad shape, when he was brought out. His father has since been arrested.
