Nicaraguan navy captures 50 undocumented immigrants abandoned by human traffickers - People's Daily Online
The Nicaraguan navy has detained 50 undocumented immigrants from Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana and Nepal, Frigate Captain Angel Fonseca announced Sunday.

The immigrants were abandoned Friday by human traffickers, said Fonseca, noting that the traffickers use the Caribbean region as a hallway for their illegal activities.

Among all the detainees, 27 were from Eritrea, 12 for Ethiopia, eight from Nepal, two from Ghana and one from Somalia, including 11 women and a three-year-old child.
