France Info reports that on 31/08/11 police used a Parisien RATP tram in a special operation to move around 100 Roma from a camp in Saint-Denis where they had just been evicted to the RER station Noisy-le-Sec. RATP first denied that this happened but later admitted it. According to Medicins du monde children and their parents were separated on the journey. A delegate from the SUD-RATP union denounced the operation and noted that la gare de Bobigny had been used for deportations during the Second World War.
