ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION ENDANGERS RULE OF LAW IN BOSNIA - UN OFFICIAL

SARAJEVO, Nov 7 (Hina) - Croatian and Bosnia's Posavina Canton police forces continue to search for seven people gone missing after a boat they used to illegally enter Croatia across the Sava river overturned two nights ago, a UN official said on Tuesday. Not one of the seven people has been found, their bodies neither, Douglas Coffman, spokesman for the United Nations Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina, told reporters in Sarajevo. They are believed to be Turks who most probably perished in an attempt to illegally emigrate to the West. Two Turks who survived the sinking and were given medical assistance have been released from hospital. Coffman said the tragedy spurred a meeting of representatives of international organisations active in Bosnia who may help solve the illegal immigration issue.

SARAJEVO, Nov 7 (Hina) - Croatian and Bosnia's Posavina Canton police forces continue to search for seven people gone missing after a boat they used to illegally enter Croatia across the Sava river overturned two nights ago, a UN official said on Tuesday.

They are believed to be Turks who most probably perished in an attempt to illegally emigrate to the West. Two Turks who survived the sinking and were given medical assistance have been released from hospital. Coffman said the tragedy spurred a meeting of representatives of international organisations active in Bosnia who may help solve the illegal immigration issue. Convened by the deputy head of the UN Mission to Bosnia, Julian Harston, the meeting concluded the issue was connected to organised crime, which is increasingly endangering the rule of law in Bosnia. The joint position is that at present Bosnia is one of the weakest spots which facilitates the transport of people to western Europe, said Coffman. At least 20,000 illegal emigrants take advantage of poor border control every year, according to UN data. Each immigrant pays a minimum DM2,000, which means that organised crime makes more than DM40 million on illegal transport, said Coffman. Bosnian authorities have been urged to pass urgent measures to establish efficient border control and pass laws to prevent illegal immigrants from entering the country. (hina) ha
