Chandigarh : Rajya Sabha member from Punjab Vikramjit Singh Sahney on Sunday said that 17 Indian youths stranded in Lybia for the last six months have been released from jail in Tripoli. “All of them left India for Italy in February 2023 via Dubai and Egypt. Sahney said when he got to know about these youths in May this year, he contacted the Indian embassy in Tunisia and initiated the legal process for their rescue. Initially, our major concern was to take them out from the captivity of the local mafia,” he added. The Rajya Sabha member said that he will be sponsoring all the legal expenses and flight tickets of these youths for the journey back home and then offer them free of cost skill training.
