'Police brutality' allegations at Macedonia migrant border crossing

One of the flashpoints in the network of migration routes into northern Europe is the Greece-Macedonia border.

The Macedonian government has been forced to defend itself against allegations of police brutality, with officers being accused of beating up migrants who try to slip past the recently-built border fence.

Since November, Macedonia has deported 12,000 people it regards as economic migrants.
