Muslim migrants throw 12 Christians overboard in Mediterranean, police say



Migrants are waiting to be transferred in holding centres after disembarking from Italian Coast Guard ship "Dattilo", in Augusta's port, near Siracusa, Sicily, Italy, Thursday, April 16, 2015.


Italy's migration crisis took on a deadly new twist Thursday, as police in Sicily reported that Muslim migrants had thrown 12 Christians overboard during a recent crossing from Libya, while aid groups said another 41 were feared drowned in a separate incident.

Palermo police said they detained 15 people suspected in the high-seas assault, which they learned of while interviewing tearful survivors from Nigeria and Ghana who had arrived in Palermo Wednesday morning, after being rescued at sea.

The 15 were accused of multiple homicide aggravated by religious hatred, police said in a statement.

The survivors said they had boarded a rubber boat on April 14 on the Libyan coast with 105 passengers aboard, part of the wave of migrants taking advantage of calm seas and warm weather to make the risky crossing from Libya, where most smuggling operations originate.

During the crossing, migrants from Nigeria and Ghana — believed to be Christians — were threatened with being abandoned at sea by some 15 other passengers from the Ivory Coast, Senegal, Mali and Guinea Bissau.

Police said the motive was that the victims "professed the Christian faith, while the aggressors were Muslim."

Earlier Thursday, the International Organization of Migration said four migrants who were picked up in recent days by the Italian Navy reported a shipwreck to aid workers, after arriving in the Italian port of Trapani Thursday. They were among 580 migrants brought to the port on Thursday, with 41 others believed to have died.

The IOM said the migrants — two Nigerians, a Ghanaian and one Nigerien — were found floating in the sea by a helicopter and were rescued by the Italian Naval ship Foscari. They had left Tripoli in Libya on Saturday, and stayed adrift for four days. The location of the rescue was not immediately known.

The new tragedies come just days after aid agencies reported 400 presumed dead in the sinking of another ship near the Libyan coast. The deaths have raised calls for a more robust search and rescue of the seas between Libya and Europe, amid a surge in migration between the Middle East and Africa toward Italy.
