Focus Group for Prosecutors on Migrant Smuggling 2024 | EUROJUST
Migrant smuggling crimes are committed by connected organised crime groups (OCGs) working in trafficking rings, often ruthlessly endangering the life and limb of the migrants throughout the journey by land, air or sea. These crime groups regularly also engage in related forms of crime, such as offering a “smuggling service package” that can include illegal attempts to obtain citizenship of an EU Member State. Others turn on their customers and make them victims of human trafficking for modern slavery.
The migrant smuggling investigations coordinated through Eurojust aim to cover criminal activity along all major migrant smuggling routes to the European Union.
