The Zagreb police have reported a 42-year-old Croatian citizen for smuggling migrants after an investigation revealed he allegedly collaborated with a 55-year-old Serbian national, who is still at large. The accused arranged the transportation of several foreign nationals who had previously entered Croatia illegally. The migrants were placed in the cargo area of a truck without proper ventilation, seating, or safety belts, endangering their lives and health. According to the police, the 42-year-old acted as a facilitator for the 55-year-old to avoid law enforcement. After being caught near Novi Zagreb, the migrants were handled according to Croatian laws on international protection and foreigners. The 42-year-old has been handed over to the prison warden within the legal timeframe, while authorities continue searching for the 55-year-old.
