Racism and xenophobia

Salah Touil

August 16, 2015. Totana

Two young Moroccans and two Spanish friends celebrate the birthday of one of them in a nightclub frequented by young Latin Americans. “I do not know why started the fight because they did not hit each other at the disco. Salah had a word with an Ecuadorian and then he went outside to smoke a cigarette” told the compatriot and fellow of the victim. It was a few minutes from 5.30 a.m. and his friend did not come back to the club, so he went out looking for him. “When I came out I found him on the floor, there were between five and seven people hitting him, it was also the Guard, a bulgarian citizen, and a friend of him. In my life I have never seen such a thing”. At that time a real battle began because Mustapha, who relates the story, saw that the alleged perpetrators were outnumbered so he fought back them with stones. “I wanted to help my friend and threw stones at them”. In this great fight , at least 30 people participated, including Moroccan, Spanish, Ecuadorians, Bolivians and Bulgarians. According to investigative sources, some of the suspects belong to Latin gangs. The Moroccan community could not understand what happened and one of them said “In this club there is always Ecuadorians and we do not get there to avoid problems with Latin gangs”. Hours before this massive brawl, in which around thirty people took part, there was another fight between Moroccans and Ecuadorian citizens at Lorca Street.
