They hit me by a metal baton to my mouth and I lost my tooth. They also hit me into my knee that got twisted.
When the police stopped beating the men, they took them directly to the Bosnian border for their deportation. Once they arrived near the border, they made the men undress, searching for their money and mobile phones. They stole 500€ from the respondent. Afterwards, the police told the men to walk back to Bosnia and started shooting in the air with their guns. The men walked 40 km until they reached the makeshift camp in Velika Kladuša.
