Police Investigate Possible Cult Link After Shackled Victims Found At Seaside Location

Regarding the finding of five shackled bodies floating in the sea off the coast of Majorca, Spain, authorities have proposed an explanation.

To identify the bodies and determine how they died, an inquiry has been started. Officers are looking into the possibility of murder because the five bodies were discovered chained, with their hands and feet bound.

The remains were found by the Civil Guard in the Balearic Sea, and it is thought that the victims were migrants who attempted to travel by boat from Algeria to the Spanish shore.

This path has been known to be hazardous and to have resulted in fatalities.

These people were discovered with their hands and feet bound, even though other bodies have previously washed up on beaches.

Over the course of a month, the bodies were discovered in various places. According to the Express, a shackled body was discovered “a few days later” in the waters of Formentera, while another body was recovered on May 18.

The circumstances behind their deaths are still being investigated.

According to LBC, the Balearic Islands’ Civil Guard believes the migrants may have argued during the journey and ended up being shackled and dumped into the sea.

This follows the announcement by the Balearic Government Delegation that 31 remains had been found on the islands’ beaches and in their waters between January and June of this year.

For officials, identifying the individuals is nearly “impossible” due to a lack of DNA evidence, documentation, and body decomposition.

To increase the ‘ageing’ workforce, Spain announced a three-year plan in 2024 to offer residency and work cards to 300,000 unauthorised migrants, according to AP.

Spain’s low birthrate has been addressed by the government’s migration policy, according to Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez.

In August of last year, Sánchez travelled to three countries in West Africa to discuss migration to the Canary Islands in Spain.

In an attempt to obtain better employment and economic prospects, men from Mali, Senegal, Mauritania, and other places take perilous sea voyages; frequently, they do so while experiencing political unrest or violence back home.

According to figures from the Spanish ministry of interior, almost 54,000 migrants entered Spain illegally between January 1 and November 15, 2024, a 15.8% increase over 2023.
