Watch The Med Alarm Phone Investigations –30th of July 2022Case name: 2022_07_30 - Eastern Med 952
Situation: Unclear outcome, suspected pushback at the Greek landborder
Status of WTM Investigation: Concluded
Place of Incident: Evros Region
Summary of the Case: On the 30th of July 2022, The Alarm Phone hotline was contacted about a lone 55 year old man in the Evros region of Greece. We were told he was scared and feared he had been poisoned, as he was having trouble breathing and could not walk anymore. Alarm Phone alerted authorities by email at 17:47, and asked for urgent medical help, requesting an ambulance be sent directly. Frontex sent their standard reply that the information had been relayed to appropriate authorities. Alarm Phone called Metaxades border guard station at 22:29, who stated they would send a car to search for the man, but there was no confirmation if this took place or if the man was found. Alarm phone lost contact with the traveller, and the outcome is unclear.
However, we fear that he was pushed back in a group of 200 people reportedly pushed back during these days. (We reported on this here - Report on alarmphone.org: https://alarmphone.org/en/2022/09/07/a-dilemma-between-unbelievable-violence-and-death/?post_type_release_type=post)
