Voluntary Hostage to Be Smuggled Abroad

It is not new story. In fact, it is going on long time, people started to be fed up hearing it. Individuals won’t learn from this experience. They put their hand on their eyes to be blind not to see of the dangers, they close their ears not to be warned of the wrong doing and the consequent failures of their destiny.

The journey from the Sudan to Libya on congested cargos going through terrible terrains there are horrible stories to be told. Staying in Libya until the travel day comes to Mediterranean Sea, is an image of real hell on earth. The uncertain journey on sea by outdated and unreliable boats is another tragedy human being faces in this modern era.

Leaving apart those drowned in Mediterranean Sea, the rest who crossed on shore to Italy, some has to give finger prints, the others has to run away for unknown destinies in Europe countries. Finally, reaching in what is called save places what is to be said if suicide will be the end of the episode?

Now, let us talk about a case of a young women who reached through the Sudan to Turkey. She volunteered to be hostage for a sum of $7000 (seven thousand USD). A person from Sweden promised her to get her as his patronage on arriving to Sweden so that he to pay the ransom money. This innocent woman, dreamed of the safe and comfortable life of Sweden with out any hesitation she volunteered to get in to the plane that transfers her from the Sudan to Turkey. On arriving in Turkey, she felt secured and was hoping to reach Sweden. She has 3 children from her previous husband. The Children’s age is the elder one is 16 years, the middle one is 14 years and the youngest one is 11 years old.

The dream of getting her children to Sweden and having sending them to school was her every nightly dream. The dream dashed; her hope crushed when she realized that the case turned to be differently. The man from Sweden (an Eritrean) who promised her is not to be present for her rescue. Now she is in a closed room with no chance to see day light. She cannot leave from the place she is staying in Turkey unless she pays the ransom of $7000 (seven thousand USD).

In conclusion what is to be done now? How could human beings be mercy to this innocent woman? Is there way to help her?

Please share it.
