Italian police round up migrant-smuggling ring, arrest 19
2020-12-07
[DW] Police in Italia have arrested members of a migrant trafficking organization and seized thousands of euros in cash. A two-year investigation linked people across Italia with smugglers operating in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

and Greece.


Italian police have arrested 19 people across Italia in connection with a migrant-smuggling ring, according to a police announcement on Twitter.

The smuggling ring charged migrants colonists from Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

and Pakistain around €6,000 ($7,270) for transportation from the Eastern Mediterranean, through Italia, and eventually into La Belle France. The group also provided migrants colonists with fake documents.

Saturday's official announcement on Twitter said: "19 arrested for aiding and abetting clandestine immigration to Bari, Milan, Turin, and Ventimiglia by mobile units from Syracuse, Bari, Imperia, Turin, Milan, and state police forces. Criminal groups in Turkey and Greece aided the migrants colonists in their journey towards La Belle France and northern Europe."

The authorities seized 16 telephones, four laptops, various documents and €25,000 in cash. A statement from Italian police described the network as "a means of connecting criminal groups active in Turkey and Greece which organized migrant transport ... in exchange for large sums of money."

TWO-YEAR INVESTIGATION
The investigation into the ring began in 2018 after the arrival of 10 boats in Sicily which came from Turkey and Greece rather than Libya — the regular crossing point for hundreds of thousands of migrants colonists attempting to enter Europe.

The ring paid boat skippers around €800 per crossing and then supplied the migrants colonists with falsified documents including proof of residence and work contracts to support their applications for residency permits.

The cost of the journey was often paid by relatives via money transfer or at "collection points" in Turkey, according to the Italian police.

Some of the migrants colonists were taken north through the Italian peninsula to the French border to carry on their journey into northern Europe, the preferred destination for many seeking refuge and economic stability.

Police reported that one suspect was stopped at the railway station in Ventimiglia, a town close to the French border, on the way to transport a group of migrants colonists into La Belle France.
Breitbart adds:
The investigation, led by prosecutors in Catania, Sicily, unveiled a network that involved hired or stolen sailboats transporting migrants colonists via The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
and Greece to Italia. Some then traveled north to the French border and were smuggled by vehicle into La Belle France, thanks to human smugglers based in border towns, police said in a statement.

The arrested suspects included Iraqi Kurds, Afghans and Italians, police said.

One of the alleged ring’s bases was in Bari, southern Italia, where false documents were issued indicating the migrants colonists had housing, a requirement for residency permits. Other bases were in Milan and Turin in northern Italia as well as in the town of Ventimiglia, near the French border.

Others allegedly involved in the scheme falsified work contracts so the migrants colonists could successfully apply for permission to reside in Italia, authorities said.

The investigation ascertained the activities of a network of Italians and foreigners, most of the latter holding residency permits issued on grounds of international protection, the police said. The ring was "dedicated to facilitating the entrance, stay and transit toward northern Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
of migrants colonists coming from Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistain."
