Italian Police Dismantle Gang Smuggling Chinese Migrants into Country Using Luxury Vehicles

Italian authorities have reportedly dismantled a Chinese human trafficking network that used luxury cars to smuggle migrants into the country. According to police, the traffickers would pose as unsuspecting Asian citizens, with some reports suggesting that the migrants were forced to surrender their passports and treated as slaves. The investigation began in April after a Chinese citizen was stopped at the border between Italy and Slovenia. The exact details of the operation are unclear, but it appears that the traffickers used luxury vehicles to transport the migrants across the border.
