In the last weekend, police officers from the area of the Koper Police Administration had a lot of work to do in carrying out the tasks of protecting the state border.
On Saturday, police officers at Materija stopped an Opel Movano van, registered in Ljubljana, driven by a Serbian citizen. There were 22 other people in the vehicle who tried to cross the border illegally. The passengers turned out to be four citizens of Bangladesh and eighteen citizens of Pakistan. The driver was taken into custody. Afterwards, the police in Divača stopped a car driven by a Serbian citizen. Both drivers were managed to be connected in the proceedings, so both are followed by a criminal complaint.
Police in the region dealt with as many as 97 illegal migrants over the weekend.
