Because passenger trains are increasingly controlled, refugees now try to enter Germany on cargo trains.
Cops check whether the cars are shot and if the bullet seal is damaged. If they're opening the cars for control.
Many asylumers hide under cars. Land forces are supported by air from helicopters with infrared cameras. When they detect something they report patrols on the ground.
Seven o'clock in Raubling near Rosenheim. The police control a freight train coming from Verona. The train has passed from Italy to Austria before entering Germany. Suddenly at the end of the train, panic breaks out: Two African refugees have been hiding under a wagon, trying to enter Germany using the night.
Refugees are dissected, barely out of their hiding places. Africans must have spent about nine hours on the train. They are from Nigeria and have boarded the freight train in Bolzano, Italy. Bolzano is the country where all the cargo trains from Italy come from for Europe, and from here many refugees leave.
The refugees arrested in Rosenheim are questioned by the police with the help of a translator. The answers depend on whether Africans will return to Austria or be allowed to seek asylum in Germany. After about three hours the police also receive answers to their fingerprints.
Nigerians have been registered elsewhere in Europe. And at the end of the interrogation it turns out Africans have no reason for asylum in Germany. They will return to Austria. From there they would probably be deported to Italy, where they first violated EU territory. /DW
