German police arrest 5 Syrians linked to smuggling of Syrian migrants
[NPASyria] German police found on Tuesday more than 100 Syrian migrants colonists and arrested five others while raiding several locations in the country in connection with the suspected smuggling of migrants colonists.

The News Agency that Dare Not be Named reported the federal police said more than 350 coppers searched apartments and other buildings and executed five arrest warrants, three in the northern town of Stade and two in the western town of Gladbeck.

They arrested five Syrian asylum-seekers already living in Germany. They had been paid around $7,400 to smuggle Syrian migrants colonists. The police also seized cell phones, sim cards, 220,000 euros worth of gold and 16,000 euros in cash.
We already knew people smuggling to the West is highly lucrative.
"The investigations in this case ... show how criminal networks take advantage of the personal circumstances and (the migrants colonists’) high motivation to flee to maximize their own profits," according to a statement by federal police at Frankfurt airport.

Roughly one million Syrian asylum-seekers and refugees live in the EU. Germany alone hosts around 59% of them. Across Europe, Syrians have usually been provided with international protection status. However,
