]]> An article about the current registration drive of Roma who had no identity papers in Transcarpathian Ukraine. According to the article, documentation of Roma remains one of the priority tasks for the Migration Service of the Transcarpathian Region. Often, the necessary procedure is complicated by the fact that the first passport is obtained already after reaching the age of 18 – this is almost every second application of the Roma. In this case, particularly painstaking work with the available documents and a mandatory procedure for identification are required.

One of the side effects, is that many of these Roma can then flee the country.

]]> Klaudia Wioletta, an academic, and not a whistleblower learned that the Norwegian police had created a register of Roma, a national minority in Norway, and had no choice but to subject it to public and legal scrutiny.

She first came across the Norwegian Roma “family tree” compiled by police officers during a meeting she was invited to on crime prevention activities in Oslo in the fall of 2023. The police officers wanted to expand their knowledge about Roma and invited her because in her research she dealt with issues related to Roma. She photographed the “family tree” and, suspecting that there was a register behind the graphics, accepted the invitation to another meeting with the policemen who presented it.

Her suspicions were right. During the next meeting, the officer showed her the log on his computer and explained how he created it. The register includes 14 people who have been charged in ongoing criminal cases, 74 are their close relatives and 567 other people. The register even includes Holocaust survivors, deceased persons, and Roma children.
