Turned back at the border

Didier Ruef

A report from Como, Italy, on hundreds of migrants who gathered and camped for weeks in the park in front of San Giovanni railway station. These men, women, and children were all travelers without luggage, papers, or visas, who were intercepted by Swiss border guards and sent back by the busload to Italy.
