After the Greece boat disaster tragedy, Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has speedup its operation against human smugglers and on Thursday arrested four more human traffickers in Lahore and Kasur. According to media reports, arrested accused, identified as Abdul Rehman, Mohammad Rasheed, Rizwan, and Imran, were wanted in connection with the heinous crime of human trafficking. According to FIA officials, these individuals had been operating a sophisticated racket, exploiting the dreams and aspirations of innocent citizens by promising them lucrative job opportunities in Canada, Italy, and the United Arab Emirates. Reports suggest that the accused would extort large sums of money from unsuspecting victims, convincing them of securing their desired overseas employment. However, once the funds were received, the accused would promptly vanish, leaving their victims stranded and their hopes shattered.
