Slovenia: The Erased People

Imagine waking up one morning and discovering that you no longer exist. That's happened to 10,000 people in Slovenia. People who had been born or had lived most of their lives in this newly independent state have discovered that their government has 'erased' them from all public records.They have lost their jobs. Their children have been turned away at the school gates. Pensions have vanished. Suddenly they have no health insurance. Many have been evicted from their homes.
