A young Moroccan man has denounced the behavior of two police officers in Melilla for having repeatedly assaulted him; reports the Spanish TV channel Antena 3. A CCTV camera on the borders shows how one of the two agents hit a driver through the window of his car.

The young man, who delivers goods, tried to avoid the blows by moving on the other seat of the car without leaving it. The policeman then extracted him from the car and searched him.

After the policeman hit the young man on the head, the latter fell on the ground. The same clip shows how another policeman came and kicked the man when lying on the floor.

The police said that the Moroccan man had previously fled and that he was about to flee using his car.
