In a press release issued this Saturday, the Guardia Civil reported the discovery of two corpses in Balearic waters, possibly the product of the mafia of the pateras and illegal immigration.

The facts date back to last Thursday morning, when the Underwater Activities Group (GEAS) of the Armed Forces and Maritime Rescue were activated, after receiving a warning from a boat of the sighting of two bodies in waters near the island of Cabrera.

In this context, an operation was mounted to rescue the two lifeless bodies, presumed to be those of migrants who lost their lives while attempting to reach the Spanish coast.

With these two bodies rescued, a total of 57 lifeless bodies have been recovered so far this year in waters near the Balearic Islands, the Guardia Civil has finally pointed out.
