Italy Shipwreck: Police Arrest Three For Alleged Human Trafficking

Police in Italy have arrested three people on suspicion of people-smuggling following the deaths of at least 64 migrants in a shipwreck off the country’s southern coast on Sunday.

Most of those on the wooden vessel, thought to carry 200 people, were said to be from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, Iraq and Iran.

The three men arrested: a Turkish man and two Pakistani nationals, are said to have sailed the boat from Izmir in Turkey to Calabria in Italy despite bad weather conditions.

Police say they allegedly asked the migrants for about €8,000 (£7,000; $8,500) each to make the long journey.

Officials have warned the final death toll could climb to more than 100.
