A group of 10 Pakistani citizens who were detained in a Libyan prison during illegal migration appealed to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif-led government to release them.
According to the 24News HD TV channel, all these Pakistani detainees belong to the area of Jalalpur Bhattian in Hafizabad.
A resident of Jalalpur Bhattian, Amanullah with nine other companions imprisoned in the Libyan jail appealed to the Pakistani Government for help, in a video message.
The captives said that their agent Usman Tarar took Rs2.4 million from each of them for taking them to Europe and fled after dropping them all in Libya.
He said the Libyan Police have arrested them but not even given them a meal properly and they have to stay hungry for most of the days.
The prisoners gave a message to the Pakistani people that they should never be trusted by the agent mafia as all of these agents have gone underground after the tragic Greece boat accident.
