An unpleasant surprise awaited a British family traveling on holiday to the French coast near Nantes after two young men jumped out of a roof cargo box on top of their car during a break on the long journey.

The 16-year-old migrants thought they were in the UK, but instead only manged to get further away from the French port of Calais, where they had first hid inside the car’s cargo box, French radio station France Bleue reported.

The moment during which the two teenagers, probably from Guinea and Eritrea, climbed out of the car box, was filmed by the driver’s daughter. The video shows them getting out of the car box, with the angry and frightened driver shouting at them.

“What the f**k are you doing?” one of family members asks the migrants as they clamber out.

“Have you nicked anything? Have you stolen anything? Where’s all our stuff?” They are heard asking.

As soon as the two migrants found out that they are not in the UK, they put on their hoods and decided to walk away as if nothing had happened.

French police said the two migrants probably got in the car box when the family made a stop in Calais after passing through the Eurotunnel. The migrants saw the British license plate and climbed into the car box, unaware that the vehicle was heading further away from the UK.

To make room, they also threw the family’s possessions out of the car box, leading to the family losing some of their belongings right at the beginning of their vacation.

Police then detained the migrants and transferred them to a charity center. The family has filed a complaint of theft against the two migrants with the French police.

Images of an illegal migrant landing that took place on 28 July on the most popular beach among shocked tourists and holiday makers, was broadcast by Italian CorriereTV. But the government is instead concerned about the politician who had tried to stop these illegal landings.

Migrant landings in Lampedusa have continued non-stop, even as the Italian island is struggling with the continuous arrivals of small boats leaving from Tunisia. Some 26 illegals arrived undisturbed directly on the beach of the Isola dei Conigli, the most popular beach, debarking while the incredulous bathers watched the spectacle.

A few moments later a Coast Guard patrol boat reached the boat, just as a police van arrived. Within 20 minutes two other boats arrived at different points on the island, with 66 migrants on board in total.

In the early morning seven other ships had disembarked, three of which arrived directly on the shore. Because the reception center in the Imbriacola district is already overcrowded, the illegals were transferred to other centres.

To make matters wore, there are migrants who have tested positive for Covid-19 at the Lampedusa centre. On Friday, at least two foreigners were transferred by means of a helicopter of the Guardia di Finanza. Their conditions, according to local sources close to Giornale.it, were serious, and for this reason, the transfer to an appropriate hospital off the island was ordered.

The two migrants were isolated inside a protective tubular structure on the helicopter. Meanwhile, other migrants, who had arrived at the Lampedusa reception center, have tested positive elsewhere. In Treviso 129 illegals have tested positive for the virus while Turin reported four cases. They had all landed in Lampedusa a few days earlier.

There are currently 700 illegals on the greater island of the Pelagias. The danger that the Coronavirus can be imported by foreigners is increasing with consequent serious risks both for citizens and law enforcement.

The Secretary General of the Autonomous Union of Police Stefano Paolini told the daily of the danger faced by the police: “The situation has become unmanageable and there are no answers from the Ministry of the Interior to manage the phenomenon. We still have no indication of the rules of engagement that can be applied when migrants run away from the reception center. How can we block them?” Meanwhile, in every part of Italy, migrants continue to escape from reception facilities.

League leader Matteo Salvini said on Friday that he was the victim of an injustice after the Senate on Thursday voted to authorize putting him on trial for “kidnapping”.

As crossings of the Mediterranean by migrants become more and more frequent, senators are trying to shift the focus, RFI reported. Salvini is thus accused by the court in Palermo (Sicily) of “kidnapping” in the Open Arms case. This ship had been chartered by the Spanish NGO Proactiva Opens Arms, in August 2019, with 80 migrants on board.

The case is one of several stemming from Salvini’s closed ports policy against NGO-run migrant taxis. The Open Arms spent almost three weeks at sea last year after Salvini refused to allow it to dock.

Ironically, Premier Conte had been in agreement with Salvini’s handling of the case. The leader of the League has seen his immunity lifted by Italian senators which has paved the way for a trial.

This lifting of immunity is a victory for the NGO Open Arms, which said it did not target only the former Minister of the Interior, “but a vision of the world and of politics opposed to the reception of migrants”. The fact remains that in this case, Matteo Salvini faces 15 years in prison.

Before the Chamber of deputies, Salvini reaffirmed his commitment to the law. “I am proud to have defended Italy and I will do it again,” he said. He denounced the political pressures exerted on him: “If someone thinks of scaring me with a political trial, he is mistaken. I am going forward with my head held high, I will come back to the government and I will do the same things.”

This waiver of immunity is the second for the Federal Secretary of the League. Last February, it was lifted in a procedure where he was accused of having blocked 116 migrants for several days on board the Gregoretti, a coastguard vessel, in July 2019.

The League said it had been a “collective decision” on behalf of the government.

A European Commission spokesperson said on Thursday that the EU executive was “aware” of the intensification of the arrivals from North Africa. The spokesperson said the EC was “following closely” the situation, especially Lampedusa where “the difficulties are significant”.

“Clearly it is the job of the member State to deal with these difficulties initially,” the spokesperson said and added that the EC had already given support to Italy.

The number of girls and women who are victims of female genital mutilation (FGM) in Germany has increased by 44 percent since 2017 to 68,000, announced German Minister for Family Affairs Franziska Giffey.

According to the minister, mainly migration is to blame for the massive increase as many migrants coming to Germany commonly practice FGM in their own home countries. The practice, which is a human rights violation, involves the ritual cutting off some or all of the external female genitalia.

Giffey confirmed that the increase in cases compared to 2017 is so significant because of the rising numbers of immigrants from Eritrea, Somalia, Indonesia, Egypt, and Nigeria arriving in Germany,

The government report further estimates that almost 15,000 girls in Germany may be at risk of undergoing the procedure, including girls who are also second-generation citizens whose parents migrated to Germany, which demonstrates the practice has not faded despite some families living in Germany for years.

Giffey said that it was an “archaic, terrible human rights violation” that produces serious physical and psychological damage to the women who experience it, according to Die Welt. 

In the broader world, 90 percent of girls are circumcised in some countries, according to the children’s aid organization Unicef. About 200 million women around the world have gone through the female genital cutting, the World Health Organization estimates.

“Female genital mutilation is a serious violation of human rights and an archaic crime that violates girls’ and women’s right to physical integrity and sexual self-determination,” said Minister Giffey.

The German family minister declared that her goal is to protect girls and young women from such practice, as well as offer them help.

“It has lifelong physical and psychological consequences for those affected,” warned Giffey, calling on local communities to introduce measures that would prevent the rising number of FGM victims.

In Germany, Fadumo Korn is committed to raising the issue of FGM practices while serving as the chairwoman of the association NALA – Education Instead of Circumcision. She came to Germany from Somalia 40 years ago in Berlin and during Giffey’s press conference described what happened to her as a child, saying, “I was robbed of my femininity at the age of seven.”

In the steppes of Somalia, she was held by two women without any anesthesia and circumcised with a razor blade.

“You can’t imagine that (…) There is no word that can describe this pain if you have your organs cut out without anesthesia,” she described.

Following the procedure, she almost died after falling into a coma, but has since used her experience to warn Germans and others about the dangers of the practice, saying that it is a “powerful tradition” in many countries that continue till this day.

Former President Bill Clinton was on convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s island with “two young girls,” according to witness testimony from 2011. That testimony was part of recently unsealed court documents in the case.

The witness, Virginia Roberts (Now Virginia Giuffre), was questioned by lawyer Jack Scarola, who asked, “Do you have any recollection of Jeffrey Epstein’s specifically telling you that ‘Bill Clinton owes me favors’?”

“Yes, I do,” she answered. “It was a laugh though. He would laugh it off. You know, I remember asking Jeffrey what’s Bill Clinton doing here [on Epstein’s island] kind of thing, and he laughed it off and said well he owes me favors.”

“He never told me what favors they were,” Giuffre added. “I never knew. I didn’t know if he was serious. It was just a joke… He told me a long time ago that everyone owes him favors. They’re all in each other’s pockets.”

“When you say you asked him ‘why is Bill Clinton here,’ where was here?” Scarola continued.

“On the island,” she answered.

“When you were present with Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton on the island, who else was there?” Scarola asked next.

Giuffre replied, “Ghislaine [Maxwell], Emmy, and there was two young girls that I could identify. I never really knew them well anyways. It was just 2 girls from New York.”

“And were all of you staying at Jeffrey’s house on the island including Bill Clinton?” asked Scarola.

“That’s correct,” she told him.

While the Clinton Foundation has previously admitted that Bill Clinton flew on Esptein’s plane, they denied he ever visited the island.

Giuffre then confirmed that sex orgies were “a regular occurrence” on Epstein’s island.

A Netflix documentary on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean, Little St. James, also includes a witness saying he saw Bill Clinton on the island with Epstein, which a Clinton spokesman vehemently denied was true.

Other high-profile figures accused of being on the island include retired Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, who denies any wrongdoing. “The time has come to investigate Guiffre’s credibility,” Dershowitz told Fox News. “She swears she saw Al and Tipper Gore on Epstein’s island. They didn’t even know Epstein. She made up the whole story. In her manuscript she admits she never met me. Says she saw me once — untrue. Says she had sex with George Mitchell and Leslie Wexner. Her lawyer denied it. She is a serial liar.”

“They have come from all over Germany, stand close together, hardly anyone wears masks. A member of the notorious Al-Zein-Clan was buried in Essen on Thursday! Many of them belong to Lebanese Kurdish extended families from all over Germany – around 700 mourners. In times of corona social distance rules a no go – but why was it tolerated?

He was one of the eleven defendants on trial for gang rape in Freiburg (Tweet above). Because no participation in the crime could be proven against him, the arrest warrant against Ayham Al R. (22 years old) was suspended.

Sentence: Six months probation for failure to provide assistance.

Now the man is back in custody. Accusation: He allegedly kicked a pregnant woman. Ralf Langenbach, spokesman for the Public Prosecutor’s Office: “On 10th of July, a scuffle with a pregnant woman took place on the pedestrian bridge at Freiburg’s main train station around 1:30 pm. Mr R. allegedly kicked the victim in the stomach.The public prosecutor’s office is investigating for deliberate bodily injury and attempted abortion. If convicted, they could face up to five years in prison.The main perpetrator in the case of gang rape, Majd H., is also awaiting the next trial after his conviction (five and a half years). Already in 2017, the serial offender is said to have raped an acquaintance.

A 24-year-old Afghan defrauded 30 women by registering on dating sites, taking advantage of dates to rob them. He also allegedly raped one of them.

A 24-year-old Afghan admitted to having defrauded thirty women by registering on various dating sites, taking advantage of dating to steal their bank cards, the Bas-Rhin departmental public security directorate (DDSP) said on Tuesday.

La Provence, regional French daily, reported that the suspect, also wanted in Canada, had already been imprisoned in Bordeaux for similar facts, but he escaped in July 2019 before being arrested again and placed in pre-trial detention in August in Strasbourg. He is also suspected of raping one of his victims.

The migrant had already admitted to having defrauded 27 women throughout France. On Monday he admitted to having defrauded three others during “a new interrogation conducted by the Financial and Administrative Investigations Unit (UEFEA) of the Departmental Security of Bas-Rhin”.

He had already acknowledged in March “all of the facts” which he had been accused of concerning the first 27 victims.

“During the meeting, he took the opportunity to skillfully steal the bank card of his prey, or simply bank details, and used it later to make online payments,” said the police.
