Part of Spain’s reception and detention system. Figures are described neutrally from the cited source; coordinates marked “approx.” are town-level estimates. Most Spanish reception capacity is delivered through acción concertada in rented, dispersed apartments with no published addresses, we do not map homes. Any allegation against a named organisation is reported as an ongoing proceeding, not an established fact.
