29 illegal migrants detained at central Sofia railway station

The Sofia police detained 29 illegal migrants from Syria in a train traveling from Turkey to Serbia. Because of the incident, power at the central Sofia railway station had to be cut off, because the people had climbed onto the roofs of the carriages.

The people detained - 14 women, 9 men and 6 children – are in good health. There have been three similar incidents since the beginning of the year, when migrants were detained inside trains.
