Reuters has reported that the body of a dead stowaway was found in the landing gear of a cargo aircraft at Amsterdam-Schiphol on Saturday, Sept. 12. The flight had come from Africa, but border police did not give any more details due to an ongoing investigation.
It is unknown if the stowaway was a refugee from a country in the Middle East or Africa. About 1,500 asylum-seekers are arriving in the Netherlands each week. Dutch reception centers are nearly at capacity, the report said.
