According to the Moroccan media, the boy is a Muslim Moroccan. Spanish authorities say nobody was killed (ES) in the protests. They also point out that the Melilla riots started at the same time as very similar protests in the Western Sahara, currently occupied by Morocco, and that earlier this week the Moroccans killed a 14 year old there.
