MIGRANT SMUGGLERS - HOW MANY HAVE BEEN CAUGHT ?

It is admirable that Medecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is to operate a ship called Phoenix, to rescue illegal immigrants which have been abandoned at sea by People Smugglers !  It should be noted that MSF is not sponsored by the EU !

What would really be very welcome is news that some "People Smugglers" had been caught and would soon be prosecuted for crimes against humanity ! 

Is there no one in the EU who is responsible for the efficient protection of the EU borders ?  Is there no one running a spy ring in Mediterranean Ports to catch the People Smugglers before Ships full of refugees leave for EU destinations ? 

There is an EU financed organisation called "Frontex" but does the definition of their functions include catching and prosecuting "Pirates" "red handed" at sea ?  

There must be someone who knows what is going on in ports around the Mediterranean !  If not, then a serious discussion needs to take place in Brussels at the next meeting of the Heads of State of EU countries !  Jean-Claude Juncker should put this problem on the next Agenda ! 

What every taxpayer in the EU would like to know straight away is how many People Smugglers have been caught and prosecuted during the last five years ?  

Is there an MEP in the EU Parliament who could raise this issue to ensure something is seen to be done and that official information becomes available for everyone, particularly EU taxpayers ?
