Swiss politician convicted of helping migrants enter illegally
A Swiss regional politician was convicted Thursday for helping 24 migrants to illegally cross from Italy into Switzerland and for repeatedly inciting others to do the same.
Lisa Bosia Mirra, a Socialist member of the Ticino parliament in southern Switzerland, was found guilty of the offences by a regional court and sentenced to a suspended fine, the ATS news agency reported.
She helped Eritreans and Syrians stuck at the train station in Como, near the Swiss border, in mid-2016.
