Why do people become escapees? Why do they try to cross the border risking their lives? The country ruler is a tyrant, for disrespect to whom people can spend the rest of life in the labour camp, for any small delinquency there are severe punishments, just believe us, they escape not from a good life... Nevertheless every escapee has his/her own reasons.
For example, one of the escapees has had the imprudence to say in public that the national anthem is boring and stupid. Then she has had only two ways: either she tries to escape or spends life behind bars... Difficult choice to make, but she has not been a coward, that's why she has joined the ranks of your supervisees and she is ready for mountains and swamps. By the way, there are people who are not ready. Please, check the escapee's age, don't take out in mountains a 70 year old lady, otherwise it will be her last journey...
We should remind that all people different as well as their stories, criminal records and social statuses. Among the escapees there are very famous people like a national football team player. At the border checkpoint he will be identified immediately, so he is better not to be there... although if you have a face-paint and a wig, you can risk.
