Schleuser duo arrested in Passau: authorities beat back hard!

In an impressive campaign, the Federal Police Passau and other authorities achieved a significant success in the fight against human smuggling on March 20, 2025. On Monday, March 17th, four Iranian citizens were arrested at the train station in Passau without valid residence documents. The law enforcement officers suspected an unauthorized entry and had the men brought to the office.

The investigation started on trip when feedback from the Munich College Fine Office arrived on March 18, which confirmed a suspicious truck. International collaborations significantly expand the search for the smuggler and his vehicle. On Thursday, Swiss officials caught the truck and found that the driver was the smuggled smuggler. The man is now pursued by the Passau public prosecutor and stands before the Lörrach district court before he comes into custody. Another blow to illegal human trafficking!
