        *****<\/b><\/p>\n

        To commit smuggling of human beings<\/b> it is not necessary for the illegal border crossing to be successful<\/b>. So, even if the smuggled person is unable to attempt to cross the border after the offender has provided assistance (for example, if he or she is apprehended by the police at the border in the country), this still constitutes smuggling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        According to judicial practice, the crossing of the state border by another person in violation of the legal provisions <\/span>assistance can be provided not only through the actual crossing of a state border, but also through participation in the events leading up to it.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        A <\/span>assistance to promote successful border crossing<\/b> (e.g. transport to the border, border crossing escort, advice on the best place to cross the border) <\/span>reports<\/b> in these cases.<\/span><\/p>\n
