Показать описание
Lottie Gammon (British)
Tracking Down Macedonia’s Refugee Kidnap Gangs
Shot in May 2015, Hungary, Greece, Macedonia and Serbia
Commissioned and broadcast by Channel 4 News (ITN)
This film exposed an organised criminal network of people smugglers, kidnapping and extorting money from refugees crossing from Greece into Macedonia en route to Serbia.
Following a tip-off from a victim, Lottie and reporter Ramita Navai tracked down the house where hundreds of refugees were being held against their will, and unearthed evidence of corruption by local police and customs officials turning a blind eye to the trade. The film had a significant impact in Macedonia and put pressure on the authorities to take action.
