A Senegalese migrant named Abdou was arrested at a police station in Badalona, Spain, during a routine document-signing appointment and deported to Senegal within 48 hours, despite being in the middle of a regularization process. According to his lawyer and supporting NGOs, he was caught in a 'trap appointment'—a practice where authorities use scheduled police visits to detain irregularly documented migrants and fast-track their deportation. Abdou was put on a flight to Dakar and left stranded without money to reach his village 200 kilometers away.
