The Attorney General’s Office announced the arrest of a gang of 37 illegal immigrants who infiltrated the country from Nigeria and committed organized crimes.
The prosecutor’s office said the gang members coordinate criminal activities run by criminal organizations named: Supreme Viking; Emsi; Eyi; Black Axe; and New Black Movement in Africa.
The Attorney General’s Office added that the gang members organized within Libya the following acts: practicing magic and sorcery; exploiting them in human trafficking, including the practice of forced labor represented by directing female immigrants subject to the control of organizations to perform domestic service; managing brothels in the country; trafficking in women on an international scale; as well as organizing the movement of illegal immigration to the countries of the northern Mediterranean; kidnapping; promoting drugs and psychotropic substances; and theft.
The office explained that the prosecution had established that the gang was run by criminal organizations based in Nigeria, and that after infiltrating the country, it had established structures in which hundreds of illegal immigrants had joined, in order to achieve common goals between these gangs and the mafia organizations active in the Mediterranean countries.
