I looked over local news in the Rhein Valley area today, and came across this HR (our regional public TV network) news piece about crime and illegal marriages. It's an odd story.
German cops in Frankfurt say that for 30,000 Euro....a gang would arrange a fake marriage deal for Chinese folks. Apparently, the cops got enough info....to have a search warrant, and went out to nineteen houses or business-fronts....to figure out the remainder of the deal.
The marriages? They were arranged with EU citizens....done in Denmark (typically where you'd go and few questions ever asked, if you wanted a simple marriage situation).
The lady or partner in this....would get 10,000 Euro of the thirty-thousand paid to the smuggling group.
End of the fake marriage routine? No....probably not. Someone will just go and figure out a different way of doing this, and locate their headquarters for the gang somewhere else.
