Five African migrants die, 15 injured following mass escape from overcrowded detention centre in Libya

At least five African migrants have died and 15 injured, some of them seriously after guards at a detention in the coastal town of Zawiya opened fire during a mass escape early on Saturday morning, April 2. According to sources, a large group of African migrants attempted to escape from the centre around 1am on Saturday morning.

The details are still sketchy but at one point there seems to have been a confrontation between some of the escaping migrants and guards who form part of the Al Nasser Militia, also responsible for guarding the nearby refinery.

"We don’t know how it happened yet but at one point there was an exchange of fire. It didn’t last long but at least five migrants are dead and 15 are injured," a source from Zawiya told Migrant Report


The injured were taken to the nearby hospital in Zawiya, which is about 45kms from the capital Tripoli. The detention centre in Zawiya is severely overcrowded with more thousands of migrants.


"We are informed there may be as many as 15,000 migrants," the same source told Migrant Report. "The conditions are terrible, severe overcrowding, no proper sanitation or proper medical facilities. It’s disastrous," he said.

Most of the migrants staying there were arrested or intercepted at sea this year, according to the source.

LAWSUITS: Jay Z sues former owners of his music streaming service, Tidal

Rapper Jay Z is suing the former owners of his music streaming service, Tidal, claiming they gave him an exaggerated figure of subscribers ahead of the sale.
According to reports, Jay Z filed paper work against Swedish venture capital company, Verdane claiming Aspiro and the music streaming platform WiMP, which would later become TIDAL, had far fewer than the 503k subscribers the company had claimed they had at the time of the sale.
Jay Z bought Aspiro for $56 million in March 2015. Jay Z is said to be seeking about $15m, according to Norwegian media.

Tidal released a statement saying: “We are excited that one year after Tidal launched, we have surpassed 3 million subscribers globally. The growth in our subscriber numbers has been even more phenomenal than we’ve previously shared.

“It became clear after taking control of Tidal and conducting our own audit that the total number of subscribers was actually well below the 540,000 reported to us by the prior owners. As a result, we have now served legal notice to parties involved in the sale.

“While we cannot share further comment during active legal proceedings, we’re proud of our success and remain focused on delivering the best experience for artists and fans.”

 

Tidal’s celebrity backing has helped it rapidly make a mark on the streaming industry. It recently announced it has 3 million subscribers and had delivered 250m streams of Kanye West’s latest album, which launched exclusively on the service in February. Other artistes such as Beyonce, T.I, Lil Wayne, Damian Marley have recently signed up to the service.
