The Junta de Andalucía has taken into care a further five more underage migrants identified among those being held at the new Archidona jail, in inland Malaga province. This brings to seven the total number of Algerian children removed by social workers.

Archidona's unopened prison building is being used as a temporary detention centre for some 500 illegal migrants while their cases and possible deportation are being processed.

Trade unions and civil rights groups continue to protest at the use of the building and in support of migrant rights. Demonstrations took place both last weekend and on Wednesday at the gates to the prison.
