Migrants in Libya being sold as slaves for â¹26,000: Reportâ
Migrants trying to reach Europe are being sold as slaves by smugglers for around â¹26,000 ($400) in Libya, according to an investigation by CNN. This comes amid increasing efforts by European and Libyan officials to stop the crossings. The crackdown has left the smugglers with increased numbers of migrants and fewer boats to transport them to Europe, CNN said.
