Locals catch and arrest illegal immigrants on the burning Evros


As Evros burns, and residents complain that the fire in the Dadias forest is caused by bonfires lit by illegal immigrants at night to keep warm, a video appears showing a group of migrants who entered Greece illegally.

The group was noticed by local residents who stopped the car with illegal immigrants on board. The citizens handed them over to the authorities, but the government did not like it and hurried … to expose them. In particular, government spokesman P.Marinakis said the following about this event: “We will not tolerate any appearance of lynching or incitement to commit crimes.”

Has the government heard of the constitutional right of citizens to act to prevent the commission of a crime, such as illegal entry into the country? Most likely, yes, but giving power to the people is, from the point of view of the Mitsotakis government, dangerous. Suddenly they feel that they are the power.

Citizens took matters into their own hands!!! Detachments of the people’s militia detain illegal immigrants in Alexandroupolis, while all forces are busy with a fire. We are experiencing unprecedented situations.


The “People’s Militia” groups were organized during the crisis with migrants in Evros – March 2020. They were disbanded after the start of the pandemic, but their members have not disappeared. And now they’re on patrol…
