Video footage emerges of migrant torture
2018-01-24
[Libya Herald] Videos showing the torture of migrant’s apparently in Libya have gone viral, drawing widespread condemnation. The victims were forced to call their family and ask for ransom money by the militias.

One video shows a man naked and in extreme pain as he is burnt with hot, liquidised silicon. His name is Sadiq Abakar Ahmed from Kutum in the Sudanese province of Darfur.

Taha Suliman Hussain, a friend of Ahmed, can also be seen in the footage.

The second video consists of ten migrants colonists lined up shirtless on the ground and being lashed repeatedly on their backs. The masked captor asks one man if he has transferred money to which the migrant cries out that that his family will. A sum of 120,000 Sudanese pounds is asked for, the equivalent of around 17,000 US Dollars.

It is impossible to verify where the incident took place and even if it actually happened in Libya. However,
if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
one of the torturers appears to speak with a Tripoli
...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn...
tan accent.

Groups from from Sudan and Chad are known to be highly active in the migrant and drug smuggling trade. Mercenaries have also bulked up almost every warring Libya faction over the last few years.

#1  But don't you dare call Libya a sh*thole. After all Obama/Clinton made Libya the great nation that it is.
