20 men from Afghanistan were caught in a Croatian forrest, 6-7 hours from the Serbian/Croatian border. They were waiting in the forrest for a person who did not arrive, so when they saw a police car, they stopped it. The police officers searched their backpacks, slapped all of them in the face, and stole their phones. A van arrived and the police officers pushed them back to Batrovci. They asked for asylum but the police officers didn’t reply.
