Hungarian Border Police!

So, I went from Vienna to Budapest on a train. While on the train, we had to go through two border checks. One leaving Austria and the other entering Hungary. When we were leaving Austria, I got my passport checked and stamped as usual. There was this guy about 5 seats in front of me with some arab looking buddy. Anyhow, the Austrian border police didn't like them. They were checkin the passport over and over, brought a laptop and checked a lot of stuff... made him take everything out of his bag, along with the bottom liner, the sides and everything. Then they made his friend do the same. Then they finally stamped their passports.
As we crossed the border into Hungary, the Hungarian border police came on the train and the Austrians got off. Apparently the Austrians told the Hungarians about this guy, because they went directly to him, made him RE unpack all his stuff, hassled him for seriously 25 minutes while other border police came over.. They then took him away towards the front of the train and I never saw the guy again. WTF. Ive never seen that before!
