新奇事件簿 走私移民人口蛇头在苏丹被捕
Police in Sudan have arrested one of the world's most wanted people smugglers. The smuggler is Mered Medhanie, 35, from the East African country of Eritrea. He has the nickname of 'The General' because of the way he plans and carries out people smuggling. Police say Mered's actions resulted in the deaths of hundreds of migrants – people trying to leave Africa to go to Europe to try to find a better life. At least 359 migrants died when their boat sank near Lampedusa in the Mediterranean Sea in 2013. The Sudanese police found Mered in a secret hideout in the capital Khartoum. They worked closely with Britain's National Crime Agency (NCA) and British intelligence services.
全球走私人口通缉犯在苏丹落网。35岁的密尔德来自东非国家厄立特里亚。因策划实施人口走私，人们都称他为“头领”。据警方表示，数百名移民因密尔德而死，为追求更好生活，许多难民试图“离非入欧”。2013年，一艘难民船在地中海附近的兰佩杜萨岛沉船，至少造成359人死亡。苏丹警方在首都喀土穆的秘密藏身处发现了密尔德。他们与英国国家犯罪调查局，以及英国情报部门密切合作。
Sudan will give Mered to the police in Italy, where he could get a long prison sentence. Detectives say he controlled a huge organisation that smuggled thousands of migrants from Africa and the Middle East across the Mediterranean to Europe. He charged people up to $5,500 each to make the high-risk journey in dangerous boats. He became very rich from his activities. The NCA said Mered was a high-level human trafficker and that he did not care about people's lives. An NCA spokesperson said: "Medhanie is a prolific people smuggler and has absolute disregard for human life." Italian police said Mered's plan was to make a huge amount of money and then move to Sweden, where his wife lives.
密尔德将由苏丹引渡到意大利，意大利的服刑时间将更长。据警探表示，密尔德掌控着一个规模巨大的偷渡组织，已有数千名难民通过它从非洲，中东越过地中海到达欧洲。偷渡风险极高，且偷渡船只极不安全，每人要缴纳5500美元。他也因此而腰缠万贯。国家犯罪调查局称，密尔德一直备受人们关注，他不在乎人的死活。据国家犯罪调查局发言人表示；“密尔德曾多次组织人口走私，对生命及其不尊重。”意大利警方称，密尔德的计划是从中获益，之后与在瑞典的妻子会和。
