Carabinieri police on Wednesday
carried out a nationwide operation targeting eight people
suspected of organizing an illegal migrant trafficking network.
The suspects, including Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Indian
nationals, are accused of smuggling migrants, including minors,
investigative sources said.
One of the suspects, a Turin-based lawyer placed under
mandatory residence, allegedly helped the network obtain
residence permits for undocumented migrants in exchange for
money, the sources said.
