A story about illegal Indian immigration to the

European Union from Outlook Magazine.

Illegal Indian immigrants to EU find friends in the
Russian mafia

MURALI KRISHNAN

The spurt in the number of illegal migrants from Asia,
particularly India, is ringing alarm bells in the
interior ministries of many countries of the European
Union.
Using Moscow as their base, and the Baltic states,
Finland and Sweden as their main entry points, an
increasing number of Indians are reportedly getting
into Europe from the north. Deportation figures
indicate that a majority of these Indians are from
Punjab who have sold off their land to make their
journey to the promised land.

According to the Russian embassy here, over 1,000
Indians had been deported from Russia in 2001. ``I
would imagine the figure would be around the same for
last year,`` says Andrey Zhiltsov, first secretary for
political affairs in the Russian embassy, who does not
wish to get into specific figures. The number of
Indian nationals who evade the net and stay on using
forged identities is a guess both officials in South
Block and the Russian embassy wouldn`t like to hazard.
But raw officials say that for every illegal migrant
deported, there are three on the run. According to
them, the numbers have only been increasing in the
past two years.

On January 13, 20 Indians and 70 Chinese, who were
illegally put up in two pokey apartments in Ukraine`s
capital Kiev, were picked up. With the help of
``guides``, the group had travelled from Moscow and
crossed the Russian-Ukrainian border. Each of them
paid $7,000-$10,000 to an agent for transporting them
to western Europe.

Criminal organisations involved in human trafficking
have moved in, say MEA officials. There are enough
Indians willing to risk the perilous journey.
Globally, the network stretches across Asia to Europe.
``Often they are left to fend for themselves when they
run out of money or when the middlemen ditch them.
They, then, swim in icy waters, traverse huge
distances in inclement weather and many die,`` says an
MEA hand on the Eastern Europe desk.

The road to Europe is fraught with dangers. Once the
money is paid to the middlemen, the migrants are
ill-treated and housed in flats with inadequate
heating. To cut down on expenses, the agents feed them
chappi or dog`s food. And when the authorities catch
up with them, the middlemen abandon them to fight it
out on their own.

The modus operandi of illegal entry varies from one
human trafficking gang to the other. The southern
route is most often used by Romanians. Says an MEA
official: ``The eastern route, controlled by the
Russian gangs, is used to transport Asians, mainly
Armenians and Indians.`` The starting point is Moscow
from where the migrants take the train to Belarus and
are then taken by road to the Polish border with
Lithuania or Ukraine, and finally into the EU. Most of
these migrants coming from the east try to enter
Poland through the porous 105-km-long Lithuanian
border.

The guards manning these borders can be easily bribed,
making the job of sneaking in illegal migrants easy.
In August last year, a Ukranian soldier, Sergei
Anikeenko, helped 15 Indians and Bangladeshis get in
through the Russia-Ukraine border. He was later
sentenced to three years in prison.

That illegal migration is becoming a lucrative
business for the mafia is not lost on the Indian
government and the Russian embassy. At the consular
talks held in November 2002, both India and Russia
agreed to jointly tackle the problem. However, MEA
officials admit that some of the cis missions ``deny``
that illegal migration is happening. ``Almost every day
we get 20 faxes from our missions in Russia and the
cis inquiring about the antecedents of those who have
been illegally staying there and if their relatives
can be contacted,`` says an official.

On its part, the Russian embassy says it has tightened
controls on issuing visas in the past two
years.Despite this, 18,000 visas were issued from New
Delhi alone last year. Russia has consulates in
Mumbai, Calcutta and Chennai as well. ``We now ensure
that only original documents are given before we issue
visas to prospective tourists,`` says Zhiltsov. But he
admits that from time to time the embassy detects that
the furnished documents are fake. ``They look exactly
the same as the original and only when these people
are detained in Russia do we realise they are fraud,``
he says.
