Los centros de menores de Melilla se encuentran actualmente saturados, y el principal de ellos supera en un 40% su capacidad, lo que ha supuesto que se tengan que utilizar las zonas comunes para que algunos de los inmigrantes acogidos puedan dormir durante la noche.
Así lo ha asegurado a Efe la consejera de Bienestar Social y Sanidad,María Antonia Garbín, quien ha reiterado su preocupación por el importante repunte que se ha registrado en la última semana en la entrada de menores extranjeros no acompañados.
Garbín ha aseverado que a fecha de hoy el centro de la 'Purísima', el de mayor capacidad y el que se toma como referencia, está "muy por encima" del número deseado, ya que hay 168 menores acogidos.
La capacidad inicial del centro era para 160 menores, pero fue necesario acondicionar uno de los módulos para albergar a menores infractores, por lo que el número máximo se redujo a 120.
Según estas cifras, en la "Purísima" hay actualmente casi medio centenar más de menores de su cifra máxima, algo que ha elevado la preocupación del Gobierno melillense.
Los menores relatan que acceden a la ciudad autónoma por la frontera con Marruecos, por lo que la consejera melillense ha pedido que se investigue este hecho y se tomen medidas.(Elmundo.es)

Saturación en los centros de menores de Melilla

A little more than a year since the reopening of an Israel Prison Service holding facility for unaccompanied minors, most of whom are refugees from Sudan and Eritrea, the prison service's own data reflects major problems at the facility - problems that constitute a violation of the international Convention on the Rights of the Child, to which Israel is a signatory.
Haaretz has learned that since the facility has been in operation, there have been 19 serious suicide attempts among the 179 children that have been held there. Those 19 cases do not include other attempts that the authorities characterized as efforts to attract attention.

The suicides were prevented due to the alertness of the staff at the facility, which is formally known in Hebrew as the "support facility for foreign unaccompanied youth." The site, which was opened following an examination of the detention of foreign children by the Knesset and the High Court of Justice, was established to avoid the prospect of detaining unaccompanied minor asylum-seekers at prisons for adults. In practice, however, it is run by the Israel Prison Service rather than social welfare or educational authorities.At maximum capacity, the facility can hold 60 children, meaning that once the facility is full, other children are still sent to regular prisons. The facility was established as a transit station for children who were expected to stay for a short period while they were being evaluated, under the assumption that they would then be referred to dormitories run by the social affairs or education ministry, or that they would be released entirely.
The suicides were prevented due to the alertness of the staff at the facility, which is formally known in Hebrew as the "support facility for foreign unaccompanied youth." The site, which was opened following an examination of the detention of foreign children by the Knesset and the High Court of Justice, was established to avoid the prospect of detaining unaccompanied minor asylum-seekers at prisons for adults. In practice, however, it is run by the Israel Prison Service rather than social welfare or educational authorities.
Because the holding facility for foreign youth is not set up to accommodate girls, five unaccompanied foreign girls are being held at the Givon prison.
An inter-ministerial committee rule requires that no child be detained by the prison service for more than 60 days, but the Israel Prison Service's own data reflects cases in which children have remained at the holding facility for 13 months. More than half of all the children are there for more than two months, and 12 have had stays of more than five months. Despite the fact that the committee prohibits children under 14 from being detained at the facility, there are in fact children there who are under 14 years old.
The social affairs and education ministries warned when the inter-ministerial committee's procedures were adopted that they could not accommodate the children. Haaretz has learned, however, that a dormitory at Nitzana that was opened four months ago currently has available space for another 20 children.
Due to an apparent lack of coordination among government agencies, the prison service said it is powerless to place children through the education and social affairs ministries. The Education Ministry said it has not been provided with current information on children awaiting placement, but 12 children are already being prepared for transfer to youth dormitories.
The prison service also noted that some detainees will not be accepted by other residential facilities because they are HIV positive or have hepatitis or tuberculosis, conditions that the facility for unaccompanied minors is not equipped to handle.
The facility was visited recently for the first time by outside parties at the initiative of MK Nitzan Horowitz, in his capacity as chairman of the Knesset Committee on Foreign Workers. The visit included representatives of organizations with an interest in providing assistance; members of the press did not accompany them on the visit.
"It's a mark of shame on Israeli society," said Horowitz, "that various authorities, notably the social welfare and education ministries, are evading responsibility and are allowing prison service staff to deal with difficult problems and impossible situations." (haaretz.com)

Alarma en Melilla por la entrada masiva de menores inmigrantesAlarma en Melilla por la entrada masiva de menores inmigrantes

En declaraciones a los periodistas, la consejera de Bienestar Social, María Antonia Garbín (PP), ha señalado que la jornada en la que más niños accedieron fue este lunes 19 de septiembre, en el que llegaron 15 menores.

Garbín ha solicitado a la Delegación del Gobierno, a quien compete la vigilancia de las fronteras que separan Melilla de Marruecos, que tome medidas porque asegura que estos menores "entran por el puesto fronterizo de Beni-Enzar".

La titular de Bienestar ha señalado además que la edad media de los que están accediendo ronda los 16 años e incluso muchas veces se demuestra que en realidad no son menores en contra de lo que afirman en principio, cuando se les realizan las pruebas pertinentes, por lo que tienen que ser trasladados al Centro de Estancia Temporal de Inmigrantes (CETI), destinado para adultos o menores que hayan llegado con su padre o madre.

"Estamos al límite", según ha criticado María Antonia Garbín, quien ha exigido al Ejecutivo central que tome cartas en el asunto para frenar estas entradas de menores extranjeros no acompañados.

“Questo è il tempo in cui bisogna pensare nuovo, bisogna pensare in grande, senza pregiudizi, senza vecchi modi di reagire, senza tutta quella zavorra di sciocchezze che oggi assordano i giovani e li rendono sempre più delusi e senza speranza.” Tiziano Terzani
