Rūdninkai is a troubled field
15 minutes collected data on the situation in Rūdninkai from six different unrelated sources. They refused to speak in public because they were not authorized to communicate with the media or it would pose a risk to their safety. Some of these collected facts were confirmed by the representatives of the Red Cross who were monitoring the situation.
The accommodation of the migrants at the Public Security Service training camp in Rūdninkai aroused passions even before the new residents were established. Locals protested the future camp for what they saw as unsafe protection.
After blocking the road, the protesters were expelled with tear gas. Interior Minister Agnė Bilotaitė declared the protests to be anti-state activities.
Subsequently, several situations arose in the camp, during which protesting migrants tore down the fence and resisted officials. Dozens of its residents fled the camp. Some of them were later arrested. The Interior Ministry has silenced some of these events.
Journalists are not allowed into the camp. Today, even access to the camp fence is severely hampered by pedestrian and car signals.
The tents have their commanders
The Ministry of the Interior does not publish the exact number of migrants housed in Rūdninkai. According to different institutions and sources, this number varies between 700 and 800 migrants.
The men brought from various lodgings live in tents. Each has a superior who contacts officials, transmits complaints and requests, decides who sleeps where, and other local arrangements.
To get a better place in a tent, you have to pay money or services.
Different bathrooms have different bathrooms.
Nationality, race and citizenship are the basis for caste formation in the camp.
The highest castes belong to the Arabs and the Kurds. For the shortest: immigrants from African countries, Afghanistan, Syria. The lower castes in Rūdninkai and other camps are becoming residents of Sri Lanka, India, and other countries in the region.
Three independent sources 15 minutes He talked about the toilets for different castes in the Rūdninkai camp. Only Arabs, Kurds and Iraqis can enter one. The second is for immigrants from African countries and the third is for Indians and Sri Lankans.
As in jail, membership in a superior can be bought. The richest migrants rank higher in the hierarchy, even if their country of origin belongs to a lower caste.
Racket the weakest and the poorest
The cost of the shower is 30 to 50 euros. Both Kurds are demanding the inhabitants of the lower caste camp. Is 15 minutes confirmed to reporters by two independent sources.
However, caste membership can sometimes depend not only on nationality or race. Physical force sometimes helps prevent noise. An example of this was the showers. The Negro who came to the wash was told to pay. The physically strong man just shoved the Kurd who had tried to attack him and went to bathe.
However, physically weaker rackets cannot be avoided. They are deprived of various items and ordered to pay for the “services” rendered to them. There are cases in which money is collected simply “for protection”, that is, a tax is simply paid.
Sexual exploitation and prostitution.
Four different fonts 15 minutes provided information on sexual exploitation and prostitution in Rūdninkai camp. This was confirmed by two migrants living in the countryside.
The Rūdninkai camp housed about 750 men. The youngest resident is 12 years old.
Sex between men in the countryside is carried out by coercion or mutual agreement. Stronger men use force and intimidation to force them to obey lower caste men and to exploit them sexually.
The weakest, but somewhat richer than prostitutes, pay for money or for various things, p. Eg cigarettes, alcohol, or even a cell phone charger.
The lowest castes in the Rūdninkai countryside are usually inhabitants of African countries, Sri Lanka and India.
Sexual services are used mainly by Kurds or Arabs.
A bottle of the officer’s whiskey – 100 euros.
For a long time, the most important luxury item in the camps was cigarettes. Its price was also 30 euros per package. Later, with the advent of car dealerships, this need was partially met.
Now, at a car dealership arriving at Rūdninkai camp, a pack of cigarettes costs between 5 and 7 euros. As a result, migrants sometimes buy cheaper cigarettes from officials.
15 minutes Sources interviewed within the camps said they had seen smuggled cigarette packs in at least three migrant shelters.
Migrants living in the Rūdninkai camp with 15 minutes agreed to speak only on condition of anonymity. According to him, officials sometimes sell not only cigarettes but also alcohol to the residents of the camp.
He and his friends bought a bottle of whiskey from one of them for 100 euros. He also heard rumors that other residents of the camp had bought beer and vodka.
Pasak 15 minutes source, official trafficking is not a constant phenomenon, but there are people in different shifts with whom “you can agree”.
Red Cross: a caste system is formed
15 minutes approached the responsible authorities with a request to comment on information gathered by journalists about the situation in Rūdninkai and other migrant shelters.
Eglė Samuchovaitė, program director of the Lithuanian Red Cross, stated that it is recorded that a hierarchical and caste system is forming in Rūdninkai camp, and that some people living there are insecure.
“By managing a large number of people in one place and without providing the necessary personnel to work within the camp, monitor and respond to emerging situations, the group finds leaders. They come on an ethnic, racial, religious basis and begin to establish the rules for the operation of the camp themselves, ”said an employee of the non-governmental organization.
According to E. Samuchovaitė, to avoid such situations, it is necessary to separate migrants on ethnic, racial, religious or other grounds when housing them. It is important to monitor the situation of smaller ethnic and other groups more closely. It is also necessary to ensure that minimum needs are met in the camp, thus reducing the potential for abuse of its distribution.
15 minutes On Thursday, the Interior Ministry requested comments on whether its authorities had registered cases of organized crime, sexual exploitation and official participation in trafficking. The editorial office did not receive a response until the article was published. As soon as it is shipped, we will supplement the material.
