And when they are not able to go legally, these unemployed youths try to cross the border illegally, which is a very difficult distance, they resort to mafia agents to cover this distance. are, which in the language of the law is remembered by the term human trafficker. Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Afghanistan are among the countries whose population is increasing very rapidly. And if there is an imbalance between the resources, there will certainly be unlimited problems. Due to the day-by-day increase in the population and non-availability of resources, serious problems like unemployment will arise, which will adversely affect the youth, the educated unemployed youth. When they become hopeless after stumbling in the cycles of job and worry. So, they turn to Arab and European countries in search of livelihood. Very few of these young people travel abroad according to the legal procedure of immigration laws. Unfortunately, very few young people of our beloved country are legal. The remaining majority of them go to European countries illegally. These young people pay millions of rupees to human traffickers and hand them over to them. Along with the youth, their families are equally guilty in this bloody game. Recently, a heart-wrenching incident occurred in the sea of Greece which left the entire nation dead. The nature of the incident was something like that a boat with about 350 people on board was going to Greece, but due to being overloaded and in the middle of the sea, the boat could not maintain its balance and sank, in which many Pakistanis were also on board. In which the majority died and many went missing.

Details of the accident that happened in the Greek sea. According to the data collected after the sinking of a boat full of illegal immigrants in which about 350 Pakistanis were on board, more than 75 people were found dead and many are still missing. or there is no trace of the dead. The families of these people are overwhelmed with grief due to the death of their loved ones and are worried about the missing persons. These people can kiss the dead faces of their loved ones and hold them in their hands. And among them there were many people who were not even seen by their families for the last time. The Prime Minister of Pakistan Mian Shahbaz Sharif took notice of this incident and
An inquiry committee has been formed to inquire into the incident and has instructed the committee to investigate the tragedy very carefully and submit the report before it. It has also been announced to punish. This heinous business of human trafficking from Pakistan to Europe has been going on for decades. These agents use two different routes to bring these young people across the border and take them to the borders of European countries. Passing through Greece and Turkey, they enter the Greek border villages and towns on foot through difficult paths of thick forests, but many years ago when the successive influx of migrants for the Greek government, the security, administrative And created economic problems and the entry of immigrants took a serious situation, then the Greek government made strict security arrangements on these routes, which made it impossible for immigrants to enter. A second route was taken in order to continue. Migrants through this route first enter Dubai by air, from Dubai by land to Egypt and from Egypt to Libya, a small stretch of sea between Libya and Italy. which is entered by boat through the coastal borders of Italy or Greece. The passengers who survived the tragic tragedy of the sinking of the migrant boat in the Greek sea have made sensational revelations about the deaths of Pakistanis in the accident. According to the British media, the surviving passengers of the boat that sank near the coast of Greece, speaking to Coast Card, said that the Pakistani passengers were forced to go to the lower part of the boat, while those of other nationalities were allowed to go to the upper part. According to the passengers, the chances of death are higher in the lower section, while the chances of survival of those riding in the upper section are higher. were done and severely punished. Women and children were apparently kept in a closed place due to the presence of men. These agents charge lakhs of rupees and thus bargain for their lives because they are aware of the fact that They will not be able to come back and their pool will not be opened, so these mafias are carrying out this disgusting work openly. There are 100 people and 400 people on board, which usually causes accidents, and even before the boat arrives, many people become food for wild animals due to the difficult mountain passes, dangerous forests and other extreme weather effects. The youth should be aware that instead of embracing this journey of death, they should start a small business in their neighborhood, street, etc. on the money that the agents give them. At least the opportunity to join in the family’s suffering easily۔
