Details
The man trusted the smugglers who promised him an “easy route” for $9000. The reality turned out to be different: in the dark, he climbed into the swift Tisza River, although he did not know how to swim. The current instantly carried him 50 meters, but he managed to get to the shore. There he faced a new problem: he got tangled in the barriers and could not move on
Reportedly, Ukrainian border guards found the offender, who was frozen and had cut hands. They freed him from the barriers and warmed him up with tea. The organizers of the illegal border crossing have already been identified. They face criminal liability.
