Swedish newspapers report that a 52-year-old man has been charged with human trafficking of three young Eritrean females. The man is suspected of having smuggled three women in their 20s from Eritrea via Skavsta Airport in Nyköping into Sweden.

The women arrived from Milan on 24 February shortly before being intercepted by immigration officials of the airport raising suspicion as they travelled in a party of four together with a man.

After officials found out that they travelled with false passports, the women immediately started to point their finger at the man suspected to be the human trafficker.

Further investigation by the police revealed that the women had paid a total of $45000 to the smuggler.
