Border police detained 35 illegal entrants in Romanian truck
Hungarian and Romanian border police apprehended 35 migrants trying to enter Hungary illegally, hiding in a truck, at Nagylak, in south-eastern Hungary, local police told MTI on Wednesday.
The migrants said they had come from Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Sri Lanka, Somalia, and Ethiopia. Legal proceedings have been initiated against the migrants on charges of illegal entry, while the two Romanian truck drivers will face prosecution in Romania for people smuggling.

The Hungarian authorities should search ALL vehicles entering Hungary from Romania and Croatia (even though these are both E.U. nations) as it is obvious to everyone that ‘people-smugglers’ use the so-called Schengen area for their profitable enterprises.
By the way, cash above 500 euros in the possession of all these 35 ‘illegals’ should be confiscated and kept by the Hungarian State to pay for ‘expenses’ incurred in keeping such individuals out of the nation.
