"Madam President, the story from December last year of a group of Eritreans brought from Sudan by people traffickers to the village of Al Mahdya, near Rafah, bears striking testimony to the moral squalor of a criminal community that feeds on human misery and poverty. The sole witness to the murder, torture and rape – the 25-year old Eritrean Solomon – who escaped from the captivity of the abductors, poses a serious threat to a criminal gang trafficking in human beings and the organs of their victims, and it is therefore necessary to take all measures to safeguard and protect him. The fact that the criminals at risk from Solomon’s testimony have put a reward of USD 50 000 on his head shows, on the one hand, that the people traffickers are making a lot of money, but also that they are aware of the threat posed by the testimony in the event that they are apprehended. Commissioner, we all – the EU, Egypt, Israel and the entire civilised world – want to see these appalling events in Sinai brought to an end as quickly as possible and the criminals brought before a court. We must therefore be more active in this matter."@en1
