Popis: | The conditions in official detention centres in Libya are dire – they are overcrowded, there is insufficient food and water, and detainees are beaten, raped and tortured. Many have died from starvation, disease or at the hands of the guards. If they are released or escape, they risk being arrested and sent back. The Libyan Coast Guard intercepts migrants and refugees attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea and ‘sells’ them to human traffickers. This is fueling the smuggling and trafficking of human beings and undermines the protection of refugees. |
