Sweden to set up repatriation centers for migrants denied asylum

STOCKHOLM, June 29 (Xinhua) -- Migrants who have been denied asylum will be housed at repatriation centers, the Swedish government said on Thursday.

"The Swedish Migration Agency registered 11,580 return cases last year, but only 39 percent of those who received a decision that they must leave Sweden did so voluntarily," Minister for Migration Maria Malmer Stenergard said at a press conference.
