Greek security officers stand accused of stealing from migrants and beating them before expelling them from the country
Greece is one of the main gateways for migrants trying to enter northern European countries and the first EU state many will encounter. Its security forces, both soldiers and the police, now stand accused of abusing those trying to make the journey.
A group of migrants rescued by Turkish border guards in early November in the Thrace city of Edirne said they were beaten and had their money and personal belongings stolen. Another migrant Mohammed Nainiya, from Morocco, also said this phone and 700 Euros were seized by Greek soldiers before he was kicked out of the country.
"We walked for miles after crossing to Turkey and came to a village, where the villagers gave us clothes.”
