"Mr President, I just want to raise a case of the need for fair treatment of someone who has been arrested in Spain on an extradition warrant from Morocco. I will not go into the details of the background, but it is the contention of myself, those people supporting him and the Fair Trials Abroad organisation that he is completely innocent of any charges. Briefly, he helped deliver a boat to Morocco; several months later people using the boat were arrested for drug smuggling. He had absolutely nothing to do with that. However, he is detained under an extradition agreement between Spain and Morocco under which Spain and Morocco have agreed not to extradite their own nationals. How, therefore, can it be that Spain could contemplate extraditing another EU national? It is surely a breach of EU law, which requires non discrimination on the grounds of nationality. I will therefore be pursuing this with President Borrell and asking him to take it up with the Spanish Government."@en1
