EU migrants stored their belongings in lockers in an ICA store in Malmö. But on Sunday afternoon the staff had removed the cabinets and tossed them in a container.
Sydsvenskan writes that the situation became chaotic when eight EU migrants discovered that their possessions ; clothing, medicine, clothes, passports and blankets were gone.
Police were called to the scene and Ica store owners argue that in many years has been the problem of people using the lockers as long-term storage.
This weekend, he got a call from his staff told me that they removed lockers because of sanitation problems.
– When there were only four of about 24 cabinets that were vacant and several of them had leftovers inside. We have tried to find solutions for a long time and has now given up, says owner Peter Åkesson to Sydsvenskan and says that it was impossible to pick out the migrants’ things and wait until they could retrieve them.
Lina Andersson included a network that will help EU migrants. She knows many of those who lost their belongings.
– They are homeless and have nowhere to store the most important things. Especially when it rains. How difficult can it be for the store to go out with information in different languages so that migrants know that there is a risk that they lose everything, says Lina Andersson to Sydsvenskan.
