Forty asylum seekers refuse to get off the bus for 24 hours after arriving at picturesque Swedish village where they were being housed… because they wanted to live in a city
A group of asylum seekers in Sweden refused to get off a bus to their accommodation because they thought it was too ‘cold and rural’
- Asylum seekers from Syria were unhappy with accommodation offered
- Temporary housing in Grytan village, Sweden, was ‘too cold and rural’
- More than 30 Syrian remained on the bus and some started a hunger strike
- Protesters demanded to be taken back to Malmo or to a big city
A group of asylum seekers in Sweden started a protest when the location of provided accommodation was not to their liking.
The 40 Syrian refugees had arrived in Grytan, some 330 miles north of Stockholm, on New Year’s Eve, but some refused to get off the bus.
Instead, 34 refugees announced they would remain in their seats until they were taken elsewhere, and some started a hunger strike.
Grytan is a small village located in Jamtland count, about ten miles south of the city of Östersund, which has a population of around 60,000.
‘They were disappointed when they came here. It was cold and not a big city,’ Bengt Sandin from Jamtland County Police said.
The asylum seekers, who arrived in Grytan from a centre in Malmo, claimed they had been under the impression that they would be driven a short distance, but instead travelled for 15 hours.
The Swedish Migration Board, however, say they were perfectly clear about where the bus was heading and that information was provided for the asylum seekers before they left Malmo.
