Status of WTM Investigation: Concluded
Place of Incident: Aegean Sea
Summary of the Case:
On the 1st of September at 11:22 CEST we were informed about two people in Greece, close to the Turkish landborder, one of them was severely injured. We asked them to call the ambulance themselves. They went in an ambulance to the hospital in Komotini. We sent an email with the names, nationalities and birthdates of the men as well as their claim for asylum to the Greek authorities.At 18:08 CEST we got the information that the police forced the two men into a red and green truck heading east towards Turkey. The next day we investigated on what has happened by calling the hosptital. There they told us that the injured men was briefly treated by an orthopaedic, ut then the two men had been taken out of the hospital by police officers. We called the closest Border Guard Station, wich is Sapes, but there they claimed to not know anything. So we have to assume that the two men were illegally pushed back out of the hospital.
