The victims were trafficked to Libya with false promises of well-paid jobs through various international routes in exchange for various sums of money. They were subsequently forced into hard labour for little money, according to the case dossier. According to the case, in the first week of April, the accused called the victims and asked them to gather at an unknown place from different parts of Libya. As the level of torture increased, one of the Sudanese victims killed a local human trafficker in self-defence. Later, the family of the slain people smuggler shot the victims to death in a revenge attack, leaving 11 others wounded.
