Copenhagen (HAN) August 15, 2014 –  The Danish minister explained clearly that the many Eritrean asylum-seekers will not be granted asylum in Denmark until the evaluation has been completed.

Last year, 1,800 people seeking asylum in Denmark were charged with a crime. That number is equal to 25 percent of the total number of asylum seekers and has more than doubled since 2007. 

A spokesperson for Danish opposition party Dansk Folkeparti said that the rise in crime reveals that some asylum seekers come here specifically to exploit the system.

 

The police said that crimes committed by asylum seekers are most often shoplifting, pick-pocketing, receiving stolen property, forgery and violation of immigration laws

Anne la Cour from the Red Cross, which operates the majority of the Danish asylum centres, said that despite police warnings about groups of Eritrean and others seeking asylum in order to commit crimes, they could not at this time confirm the existence of such gangs.

 

 

“We need to look into who the asylum-seekers from Eritrea are, why they are coming to Denmark, and whether they have legitimate protection needs,” Hækkerup said in a press release.

“If they don’t, they need to be sent back. I’ve noted that immigration services intends to send a mission to the area to evaluate the situation.”

Denmark isn’t the only nation to experience a spike in Eritrean asylum-seekers recently. Norway, the Netherlands and Germany have all experienced similar increases, and the Justice Ministry is in dialogue with the authorities in the three nations to glean their experiences.

Karen Hækkerup said that the percentage of asylum seekers committing crimes is actually falling, but that the government intends to continue putting pressure on “criminal punks

Hækkerup has also established a work group tasked with looking into how border control areas and airports can be improved in terms of tackling human trafficking and illegal immigration.

 

Er is nog veel werk te doen voor Malle Jan in Denemarken. Wat een vervelende bestuurders daar die zomaar naar de lokale bevolking en politie luisteren en ook nog eens zo inhumaan zijn om zomaar deze criminaliteit te erkennen en er ook nog wat aan te doen !!
