Karachi:
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) launched a repression against human smugglers across the country based on information gleaned by illegal immigrants when they arrived from abroad.
According to a spokesperson for the FIA, immigration staff deployed at Karachi airport interviewed four passengers who returned from various countries. They were identified as Ahsan Shabbir, Mu-Hammad Bashir, Aun Muhammad and Haseeb Khaliq. They are residents of Gujranwala and Guja-Rat. Their names were included in the PNIL list. They arrived at Karachi airport thanks to internal flights. They had traveled from Pakistan to Saudi Arabia, Dubai and Azerbaijan in Omra and visit visas. The agents then transported them to Mauritania via Senegal by illegal means and routes.
According to the initial investigation, an attempt was made to send them to Spain by sea. Passengers refused to go through the sea due to recent violent incidents and the ACCI-Dent boat and preferred to return to Pakistan. Illegal immigrants had established agreements with agents for millions of rupees to transport them to Spain.

The FIA kept the survivors of the tragedy of the Moroccan boat when they were repatriated from abroad and toasted them to disclose the details of the people involved in the racket.
The survivors of the tragedy of the Moroccan boat told a heartbreaking story of “inhuman treatment” inflicted on them by human smugglers, officials said.
The officials said they paid RS2.2 to 3.5 million each to the agents – who belonged to different parts of the Punjab for having traveled to Spain. Initially, they were sent to Dubai then to Ethiopia and Senegal on Visa. From Senegal, they were sent to Spain by sea.
“After finishing half of the trip by plane, they were taken to Senegal, from where they were in hand to human smugglers for the trips of Mauritania,” said an official. He added that the smugglers began torture them from the third day of their trip to a small boat.
According to the official, the victims endured hunger and thirst. They revealed that smugglers would throw away the sick passengers over board. The passengers said that on the last day, when the boat flowed, the conditions were so worse as they were to drink sea water.
