Two Georgians (21, 26 years old) had to answer for their actions in Salzburg provincial court on Tuesday. The charge: smuggling. According to the indictment, the two brought a total of nine Syrian refugees across the border from Slovenia on March 15 - in an Opel Vectra.

The refugees - four men, two women and three children - were torturously crammed into the back seat and trunk, the prosecution accuses the smugglers.

Their destination was Germany. But the journey ended in Mittersill - due to a traffic accident. The refugees and two defendants fled into a forest, but were quickly tracked down thanks to a thermal imaging camera. 

One defendant confessed
One of the two Georgians admitted the allegations at the criminal trial. The other said that he himself was a fugitive - but the court ultimately did not believe him. The non-final sentences: 18 months in prison each, six of which the Georgians must serve.
