the cries for help or ignored by the vatican which has chosen to protect these powerful abusers. in 45 minutes on d, w. what are sports? all of our scoring. we say they're about never giving up. sports flies every weekend on dw the goose. but these are the personal belongings one gave me the number number to the case.

the engagement represents a human log in the a few kilometers from the turkish greek border. the police got a tip off. there was a body in the forest. now cost us public research to meet us. the local funeral director has been given the job of recovering the remains with these colleagues. hey police officer, let's get started before it starts the nice area actually. if we weren't paying for this reason, why do we take everything

just gloves. the one route taken by migrants trying to get from turkey to the european union passes through the forest of the everest region. most migrants travel in groups. this disused shed seems to have served as a makeshift shelter. the sleeping bags looked as if they'd been abandoned in panic . crossing from turkey to greece is a legal for migrants without a visa. they hide from the police and they try to make their way through this difficult terrain to leave the border behind them. the funeral director has no idea what conditions the body is in. it's over here. not far from the everest and the regional capital, alex and truthfully is the university hospital forensics professor and

medical examiner. pablo's lead to his works here. all the migrants bodies found here are brought to him after sting, there wasn't enough in the last 22 years. i've seen about 600 dead bodies on the greek side alone sort of a radically hypothetically. we could say that there are just as many data on the docusign. and so we're talking about 12021500 people. so that the pacific i get the bought, we receive a lot more set requests from that, from relatives that it left or some level that that's the key. the forensic scientist works on behalf of the state. he doesn't just determine the cause and time of dash, the most of the migrants are carrying any form of id. so we also tries to identify them very often with them. a nickel, in the case of dead migrants who tend to our country legally. we fast examined them

externally and describe that client gun with shoes. it's called what type of i have with them from the books. got we photographing stuff and we remove the clouds and looks at personal offense and documents just in here was one with that of up something about possibly kind of the game. and i got this little of my time there for me. the medical examiner had more cases in 2022 than ever before. most young man finally do the form. the head is built on this side and the legs stay on the body lines here to sort of separate from this side all the way conduct told the examinations necessary for a proper old thompson, somebody and to solve the case. but if you want to get in, that is the best technical the region here is named after the ever us the river on the border between greece and turkey. the external border of the e u. the frontier is heavily guarded. since 2020

a fence has been steadily growing along the length of the river, the barrier is meant to keep migrants out of the u. but many attempt to crossing never the less and die in the process. then this is inputting this. there shouldn't be any particularly hard cases for someone like me . but when children are involved it small, difficult, far as going through the funeral director and his assistant have found the body. it seems other migraines have buried him in a shallow grave. as close to the surface of the backorder bullet pool then yes,

that's it for the oh okay, that's actually a better. do you have any shoes? no. the other migraines often take that. okay. done. the body of the dead man and some of his clothes now have to be taken to alex and truthfully so professor tonsilitis can examine them. the how old do they do? i have is id phones are all that's left with the

cost. as papa chris has to meet us, stops off at his funeral home. he built up the business together with his family. he also deals with ordinary cases, but nowadays recovering dead bodies from the border mix up a large part of his work of the very bottom. this is where i wash the bodies and then put them in the refrigerator. yeah . what about up whenever you're going to, once i brought $35.00 of them here after they drowned in the ambrose? if i, dentist, occasion as possible,

relative living in europe often come to pay their last respect here at the funeral home. this court clinic, it's very hard, they're crying, they're all crying. can you imagine that if you just kindly travel so far to either pick up the body of a dead relative or to bury them here to bow tie before i bring the body to turkey and it's transported home from there because the court it's a family can't afford to have their loved ones body repatriated. it is buried here in the cemetery, especially set up for muslims who come from elsewhere. there are countries of origin are inscribed on their grades, somalia, afghanistan, syria, people of all ages. many of the grades are fresh, the

what makes this border so dangerous? the river looks harmless. it's shallow in many places. what that was that version and that's the beginning of the process, a dangerous rather flat. it's broad and deep in monster. and so human smugglers don't allow microns to take any long gauge on both that, but there's one in that for now. now falls to as several layers of clothing, 2 or 3 pounds of trousers, 5 shots, the long a that this has been to move this by me cut off, we'll get just the slightest thing happens in the boat. capsized is a nice thing with all of these kind of like, deadlines to settle. so many people are crammed into the boats that they often tube over drowning is the most common cause of death. hypothermia is the 2nd most common other depths are linked to exhaustion. the way none of these people are

exhausted have won't spend many hours. that's what the last, why there are other quantities of database science drowning up about these get to the level of this. imagine a man in the tired and when i talked to swimming across the river, yes and wearing, with many lands of clothing for the intake, so wrapped, and that was not. it was by government support. that's why hypothermia is the 2nd most common cause of death. people keep but of course that or so some people with preexisting medical conditions they want to wear off with a blue dying from over exemption spots. yeah. this it's already done. by the time the funeral director takes the remains from the forest to the hospitals institute for forensic medicine. professor pub latest plants to forensically examine the bones the next morning. the remains are stored at 0 degrees celsius and a more refrigerator. who was this person? who might be looking for them in hanover,

save of cosi, is trying to trace his younger brother. he's a cruise who fled to germany in 2015 after a war broke out in syria. he's just finished training to be a truck driver. the rest of his family sled to a rock along with his brother mohammed have all day of what he was very good in school. and so he always ranked 1st or 2nd and we wanted to offer him a better life. and that was also my goal home and see if it's impossible to put into words for indescribable sense. we are very close to one another on the

spot because i was very lonely the whole time. i have a lot of friends, but still, but it's nothing like being brothers enough money. no matter who your friends with this family is always number one plus ours. i was really looking forward to him coming. but of because the situation was also difficult for set are costing stanley and rock the family decided to send his 14 year old brother to germany in fall 2021 across the effortless route. the visa and just like everyone else was with the people smuggler or on foot with a boat and uh and illegally because it's not possible to do it legally, which i know. and anyway, we didn't have any documents in syria oceans. you hung up in october 2021. mohammed got in touch from turkey and said that he was planning to cross the

emeralds river with a group of others. on the 21st of october 2021 instead of causing got a phone call in hanover shows. um it was the people smugglers set this up. they said that something had happened and that mohammed had fallen into the waters and they said they waited but couldn't find him initially. that was a line. then we found out that they hadn't waited and simply carried on a significant amount. they were frightened because what they were doing was illegal . and then i and i said any gardner, he flew to greece to everyone, to look for his brother. he had his dna registered back at home, he scoured facebook, visiting search platforms for missing migraines, all in vain. the internet is swirling with rumors, horror stories that are missing migrants center got to be as offer as to find well how much body for 2000 years. he ignored them, hoping for

a sign of life from his brother. this is from ha, it's really difficult, misplaced before it gets hard to put out of your mind. you're not dealing with no matter how long the wait long of, but she'll f, i hope it'll end. well see . good morning. this going to the next day, pablo's probably to is has to examine the bones from the forest. he has already received instructions from the state prosecutor's office. the forensics professor has been the medical examiner for the ambrose region for 22 years. he gets inquiries from all over the world, from people desperate to find out what is because of their loved ones, asking whether he had identified them among the bodies recovered from the boarder regence. they send photos,

videos taken shortly before the crossing spots by the river, where the missing person was last seen at the latest is not permitted to respond directly until he has verified the identity of the person. making the inquiry say about a kind of scene from hanover has sent him the photo of his missing brother mohammed on a look at us and listen to them. i'm initially looking at hand products on the bicycle object line kind of low retail enough to on then the love seeing the see the cheap pounds you want and the shape of the face of this one, this thing got the phone if there's a one month ago i think i think there's a couple of the account to raise stakes that you can easily ranking up as well. music, particularly anything linked to bones. what or the excuse me all style? is there any chance that the remains found in the forest could be said our car

seems brother. the examination begins of the full so god. what was the time and cause of death? are there any clues about the identity of the deceased? the more intact the body is the better for the whole thing the, what can you see? is there a fee my phone at least there's no sco the for the and there are many missing bones. pablo's probably just takes dna samples from one they are stored here and in a central database in athens. i also need one for anthropology. so 3 samples and

all sorts of the forensic scientist and his assistant interrupt their work. when the funeral director arrives at the hospital, the dead are stored in refrigerator containers, outback. 10 bodies are scheduled for burial. they couldn't all be identified. cost as public research to meet is, has to take the right ones. the smell of the composition hangs in the year. they all want to get it over with as quickly as possible. the mood is tense. lee, but wait, we need order. so it's one but not the other. this one and this should bring a bad stop 0 c, w 260 b can go well,

this one. yes. x is 789, and the party from the other contain and make 10. this one, this one here. so that makes 8. no, derek in the labels fell off as it was being moved. you've already got this one here. the funeral director takes the unidentified bodies to the cemetery for nameless migrants in the regions north. the professor continues to examine the remains from the floor in the back jogging pants of them. i hate this too well storage. it's possible to estimate a person's size on the basis of the femur length. they inspect the bones to see if there were any fractures prior to death. i guess i'll take that 2 separate day 12 or so. after 20 minutes, the examination is over and it's time to make final preparations.

the 1st person. it's a young man about 20 years old or self. so suddenly i think all the bones. well i think it was that goes with this with a know a young man died in the forest close to the border. maybe he was probably traveling with a group of migrants after philip was he injured? perhaps during a violent altercation. that wouldn't be unusual and people say, and then simply left behind. the 2nd level of solar center. remember, is ethical. in this case, there are no signs of violence trying to dance level. we rolled out found, but as far as we possibly can get better, stay to the body is such that it seems likely that all the medical problems lead to his dance use us for phone, talk at all possible if possible,

that the cause of death was organ failure or hyperglycemia. the remains were found just a few kilometers from a village. the medical examiner is not surprised that the young man didn't make it that far. or that nobody from the group went for help. even after that, the man i was getting the village on the spine, but if someone is the hydrated into time to walk about it, then they won't make it. finally bla, uh these people avoid the villages because they're afraid they'll have to move it to the police and they hide from the police because they're afraid of being arrested. for one that i'm missing the phone in, the border zone is closely monitored and is off limits for the public. it's guarded by front techs on behalf of the e. u, and by the greek police constantino's to like, he just comes from the everest region. he can remember a time when the river was more accessible. the building of the border fence started

in 2020. it's 5 meters high and some 38 kilometers long. and it's being steadily extended. more of a fortification, an offense or products such as the motor, just seeing the defense. it's an artificial diarrhea built to stop anyone who tries to cross the river to get to integrate that us. uh it has a deterrent advantage of this being a lover. this is an apple that if the car but the ambrose is almost 200 kilometers long in total. and in woodland areas, it's not so easy to erect a barrier on the river bank as it is here. does the construction of such fortifications, simply prompt migraines to take a different route rather than preventing illegal crossings? does it just makes it more dangerous? or here to help the, you know, i wouldn't say that much of the problem has always existed. that will always

migrants who died in the forest. so remote areas in the mountains is best office. a couple 100 and minus the the funeral director is on his way to the cemetery for an anonymous migrants. he's transporting 10 dead bodies recovered from the border zone. the on that stuff. what number is that? 116. 22. ok, take it. when they arrive, volunteers have already done the grades. each one of the 10 deceased migraines has a grave marked with a number of breach state pays the burial costs. it's a distressing task. is there a number here?

yes, 76122 will paid for this to buy, recover the body and sort of in a transport them and then i bring them here to go. but for these people who died, you have still been eligible, isn't it? a petty, then it could be by the demand don't hurry, the task, little stuff, but they checked the numbers of each individual body and the number of each grade then the burial takes place. the, the wasn't shown, i don't know who's lying there is

a body hasn't been identified for the meal. relatives can ask the forensic scientist for the number to run it. smart here in alexandria police, it's now clear that the body found in the forest cannot be so far as missing brother. the age didn't match and the medical examiner has also ruled out that 14 year old mohammed is among the own identified bodies found earlier eh, because you still a child with him again because i would remember him permitted so no, unfortunately, it doesn't ring any bells less than as you make outdoors in hanover seller costume, it still has no idea what happened to his brother. sometimes he would almost prefer to hear that his body had been found nice of it or so it wouldn't be easy

that service, but it would be better than not knowing it's located. so if we knew that he had died and could bury him, then it would be clear as well as a specific, it is what it is secure, it's something we'd have to accept what this and certainly gives us heard. i find that really, really awful. it's the worst thing for maintenance as a specialist has an impasse here in con is tortured by the disappearance of his brother. god and my friend doesn't matter what you do, you can't forget on that. unfortunately, it's simply a fact. i felt fucked. according to the international red cross, 541 migrants are classed as missing and greece, people whose friends and loved ones are desperate to find out what has happened to them. just like 7. with each passing day, it's ever less likely that his brother made it out of the river alive. troubles

most often. i haven't given up hope. and i want until we know one way or another, because no matter how long it takes a must have it. sometimes we feel we can't go ons, but we won't give up. and as long as humanly possible, visors keys for prisons are pablo's privileges. is on his way to the state prosecutor's office. he has 52 open cases at the moment. a sense of duty won't let him close them yet and he fears they will more in the winter. even it's good to, to feel to we have been experiencing it for 22 years now. altogether, unfortunately, the people dying out when quite younger simone does. that's the thing,

the only person that are the center software is always a difficult topic vehicle. but i'm a scientist, my separate professional and the emotional get ship and i don't get emotions into pay it with my job to then step up by pushing the blanket them on the will there be a ceremony or no, a civil burial giving will someone kind of time yourself on this quote, i have somebody used to say a prayer for the dead of us. not anymore. did you say it or do you like got a religious leader? why did it, and what are you doing with your own getting on my nerves now that if you sit in

your offices and think you're something special for that, but after about 20 minutes, all the bodies have been buried. the fact that the funeral director believes in life after death isn't any comfort for him. at that moment. we're partners when his life over. when you can't touch her, pulled your little plug in your soul, touch it. there is life after death, but just for the soul. one, it doesn't have a body, like so it's invisible. with others our and then stillness defends again on the cemetery for the nameless dead. anonymous migrants at europe's board or who will mourn them? the

sex slaves in the catholic church. the catholic nuns denounced the holy institution after being sexually abused for decades by their spiritual leaders. their cries for help or ignored by the vatican which is chosen to protect these powerful abusers. in 15 minutes on d w, it seems so simple. did guy, the mini bus will be big, but you know, as go the oldest guy, you modify like of a looking to get it. couldn't get by that. yes ma'am. oh god, i'll make up what i'll come on. we got the so in geico, but it had really made about of course of transitioning someone to bio gas. how do

we make this accessible to everyone? india 90 minutes on d w the . this is a dw, and use live from bullitt, russia around something nighttime aerial attacks on ukraine. thoughts keeps defenses repel incoming missiles and dr. several people i heard by pulling drones that break being well, you're christ, president, mark 70. yes, yes is.
