Survivor of Ceuta incident that ended with 14 deaths asks why use of anti-riot equipment was never investigated

Shortly before dawn on 6 February 2014, about 200 people tried to enter Ceuta by climbing the border fence or by swimming around the breakwater that separates the city from Moroccan territory.
