Explosive: Attentive Hungarian police officers may have prevented the next act of terrorism in Austria. Because when the authorities stopped a smuggler bus that was on its way to Austria carrying 17 immigrants, the Serbian-Austrian driver stated that a Syrian was travelling with a machine gun in his luggage.
Terror alert at the eastern border
However, there is no trace of the “refugee”. When the minibus was stopped by the Hungarian police officers, the strangers hiding in the hold jumped out and fled in all directions. Whether the man with the gun is now trying to cross a green border into Austria is a matter of conjecture. Anything is possible, because the smuggler’s bus was stopped only a few kilometres from the eastern border in the Hungarian district of Vas.

Numerous arrests of illegals in the district of Mödling
The entry of illegals into Austria thus continues unchecked despite allegedly improved border protection. Especially in the west of the district of Mödling in Lower Austria, there have been numerous apprehensions of smugglers and immigrants in recent months – mostly along the A21 motorway, as the Mödling Freedom Party district party leader Christoph Luisser told unzensuriert.at.
The reason for his statement at the time was an accident involving a tractor-trailer car in Achau, district of Mödling, which crashed into another car. The Hungarian driver then ran away. Six Syrians who were on board the smuggler’s car immediately applied for asylum.
Trafficker flees into the forest
Last Thursday, another case became known in Lower Austria. According to the newspaper Kronen Zeitung, the police seized a trafficker in Eichkogel after he had dropped off 16 “refugees”. The trafficker jumped out of the vehicle and ran away – he did not stop even when the police fired warning shots. The man hid in the forest and is still on the run.
