Demark: Taxi drivers protest people smuggling charges

The question is: are taxi drivers responsible for driving people that they should reasonably suspect? When asked to cross the border, should taxi drivers demand ID from anybody who looks like an immigrant? What about a taxi driver in the middle of London who's asked to drive somebody he suspects to be a suicide bomber?

Taxi drivers are so upset about the arrest of a colleague that they are going to protest along the border Thursday.

Angry taxi drivers will stage a protest this afternoon at the Danish-German border crossing in Padborg, according to P4 Syd.

According to P4 Syd, the taxi drivers are upset because one of their colleagues was arrested on charges of people smuggling. Police think that he tried to smuggle three Afghani refugees over the border and into Denmark.

Klaus Lange, taxi chief says that this case can have eternal consequences for all drivers in Flensburg who are asked to drive passengers over the border.

The taxi drivers first said they will block the border, but Klaus Lange says that their protest will be peaceful and without blockades.
