From the investigative actions, it was established that the criminal network, consisting mainly of citizens of Bangladesh, Iraq and Romania, was formed at the beginning of 2023.

The suspects recruited migrants from the Middle East who wanted to reach Western European countries, especially Germany.

During the action ,  42 people were arrested and 7 cars, passports, weapons, electronic devices, sums of money were seized./CNA
