Greece arrests six people for forging asylum seekers' documents

 six people on Saturday in an operation to break up a gang which counterfeited documents for asylum seekers on a Greek island, the coastguard said.

The criminal group was active on the island of Kos, the coastguard said in a statement, adding that the authorities seized computers, cameras and a large number of fake documents and mobile phones from several houses on the island.

About one million refugees and migrants colonists arrived to Greece last year, fleeing conflict in the Middle East and beyond and seeking to reach wealthier Western European countries.

The European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
 and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
 have agreed to stop the flow of migrants colonists to Europe in return for political and financial concessions for Ankara, sealing off the main route by which people poured across the Aegean islands, including Kos.

About 50,000 refugees and migrants colonists were in Greece on Saturday, many living in squalid conditions in tents near its northern border with Macedonia, waiting for a border to open.

Under the EU-Turkey deal, hundreds of new arrivals have been detained since Sunday. Refugees or migrants colonists whose applications fail will be sent back to Turkey.
