The German government began transporting people to Afghanistan using charter flights. Thirty criminals were deported on one flight, according to Interior Minister Dobrindt. One individual was considered ‘absolutely obligated’ for deportation despite not having a criminal record. This action has caused debate about the rules for deportations.
