Adela does not feel safe in Basel
Adela has experienced thefts in her neighborhood in the past, but she herself has never been the victim of a burglary. She says that she has had bags stolen while out and about and that parcels and bicycles have disappeared from her neighbors. In her video, she called on people to inform the police if they suspect criminal activity.
