Germany arrests Italian cabbies for 'migrant trafficking'

(ANSA) - Vicenza, September 2 - Dozens of Italian taxi drivers have been arrested in Germany for allegedly trafficking Syrian refugees across the border, authorities said Tuesday.
    At least four Italian drivers from northern Italy have been arrested in recent weeks for driving Syrian refugees across the border into Germany, officials said.
    The refugees were fare-paying customers, and drivers are not obligated to discover their clients' immigration status, taxi drivers associations said.
