Two smugglers caught in Pasewalk: Yemeni migrants in danger!

In Germany late Friday evening, two alleged smugglers were caught in Germany, which are said to be responsible for the transport of five Yemeni nationals. This dramatic scene took place on the connecting path between Hohenfelde and Bismark, where the two men were taken up by the authorities due to a citizens' notice during the border search measures. The 19 to 41 -year -old migrants should be illegally smuggled into the Federal Republic. The campaign was part of an increasing trend in which more and more people are trying to find refuge in Europe in an illegal way.

The Pasewalk District Court then ordered the pre -trial detention for the two men. The first suspect, a 37-year-old Romanian, worked as a driver of a 7 Series BMW, while the 25-year-old Syrian, who came to Germany in 2014, was also arrested. Interestingly, the Romanian is already advertised by the Würzburg public prosecutor's office due to driving without a driver's license. After completion of the border police measures, the Yemeni nationals were rejected to Poland, which underlines the continuous struggle of the authorities against smuggling and illegal migration.

increasing challenges in smuggling

The topic of the slushing is a hot iron, especially considering the current figures. According to a report by the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), a significant increase in illegal migration to Europe was found in 2023. Germany is one of the main goals within the EU, which emphasizes the worrying statistics: around 380,200 unauthorized border crossings have been recorded here, the highest number since 2016. The BKA also registered over 266,200 suspects in the area of unauthorized entry and stay, which corresponds to an increase of 33.4 % compared to the previous year. Many of these suspects come from Syria, Turkey and Afghanistan.

This increase in the smuggings also means that more and more people are getting into irresponsible and dangerous situations. They often come on foot or in small vans, the latter being used often because of their easy rental. It is therefore not surprising that almost half of the smuggled people came from Poland, Austria and the Czech Republic. The smuggling groups are increasingly acting, and the use of trade fair services for communication has also contributed to further promoting the Schools.

border protection and cooperation between the authorities

The cooperation between the law enforcement authorities is therefore more important than ever. While the German authorities are increasingly acting against the criminal slip networks, cross -border cooperation with other countries remains crucial. Reports show that the smuggings on the Balkan route have decreased, especially in the case of more intensive police measures in Serbia. But the challenges also remain on the other routes, and the authorities have to remain vigilant.

These incidents illustrate how important it is to strengthen security at the limits and to hold those responsible for accounting. The latest events underline urgency to improve the situation sustainably to protect people who try to start a new life in the EU.
