The court of El Hierro, through the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands, on Saturday denied journalistic information alleging that in the judicial process for a boat that arrived on the island, migrants were ordered to be interned in a CIE (Immigration Internment Center) for deportation, with a minor born in 2009 being expelled.
Sources from the Office of the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands indicated that the young woman who claimed to be a minor was sent for a bone test. This test determined that she was over eighteen years old, according to the same sources.
The court of El Hierro, via the TSJC, has specified that in this particular boat, there were two cases where individuals were determined to be minors. In these situations, they were sent to the hospital for the necessary tests, not for internment.
