“We were detained and interrogated for 24 hours”
On the 16th of November, at around 17:00, two men travelling together were arrested on a train. They were taken to the border police post in Menton, where they were questioned for several hours about their travel route and personal circumstances. Believing that they were undergoing an interview to apply for asylum in France, both men provided personal information during the interrogation.

On the 17th of November, at around 11:00 a.m., the two men were pushed back to Italy. They were not given any papers or documentation regarding their detention, nor any record of the interrogation or the statements they had provided.
The two men were later left on a road approximately nine kilometres from the nearest town in Italy, with no documentation or proof of what had happened to them.
