I remember Ibadan, many years ago. There was serious fuel scarcity. People wanted to get to Lagos so they boarded one of these trucks belonging to a popular company. They all died of suffocation cos u cannot open the door from inside. May they rest in peace. |

Wealthoptulent: If 4 burglars invade a home and the get away driver remains outside in the car.... and one burglar kills all 5 family members...do you really believe only the trigger man will be facing 5 counts of murder?...and the getaway driver will go free because he wasn't even in the home? They charged the guy because he was aware of the cargo.... therefore he is an accomplice./accessory to the crime. A whole lot 9f people.would be facing the same charges. |

logon599: Good thoughts . 39 adults were going for greener pastures in the UK . So maybe somthing went wrong inbetween . I am Into haulaging of trucks which I manage lots where I am . With that truck I saw on BBC website there is no way the driver would hear screaming or banging . That’s a sealed refrigerated truck. When you see the interior of such trucks you would understand better . 3 Likes 1 Share |

logon599: The 39 people must have even paid to be snuggled into UK. It is a human trafficking ring. Same scenario with migrants from Libya to Europe through the Mediterranean |

This is too fast to conclude. That's a freezer and you will not hear a word when you're driving a truck even if they're hitting it from inside and the driver must have believed its something that must be frozen hence he turned on the freezer. That guy has a good case. UK police have been making blunders recently. 1 Like |

Jamersirwin1971: And the trucks are sealed and drivers don't break the seal until it gets to final destination. All they do is just drive from point A to B. He normal to charge him so he can convince the court that he only took over driving the truck from one point to another and he is not obliged to check content. A driver delivered parts to Perkins on getting there when the logistic officer broke the seal a lot of migrants from Afghanistan rushed out of the truck and was running around like headless chickens. Drivers are only guilty if the seal us broken 2 Likes |

logon599: the truck was on sea before arrival , they might have died before the driver continue his own side of the trip which I believe he might be innocent just like a driver will go Apapa to collect container load to deliver delivery note might say otherwise and u can't open the seal tag driver might be innocent, it's 50-50 1 Like |

airminem: This is an extract from one of the articles I read. I hope you understand. "...He said that smugglers persuaded migrants to enter by setting the temperature at minus 4C 'because no one would get in at minus 20C. They tell these people: 'Look, it's not that cold, all you need to do is to wrap up warmly'. But when they get to the port they turn the temperature to minus 20C because they know that police officers would find it suspicious if they saw a refrigerated lorry with a temperature of minus 4C..." |

realestniggah: You are not serious I didn't say that he is innocent. I said that it is possible that he is innocent and we should wait until the police finish questioning him Do you know what the word "charge" means?? A charge is not a conviction. And an arrest is not a charge! You really need to learn to read and comprehend! It will help you a lot! |

sapoyoro: Thank you! Why are people here so hungry to do jungle justice on someone millions of miles away?? They won't even consider the facts or go and find out how importation, transport and border security work They are still looking for the guy who dropped the truck/container at the Belgian port in the first place so this thing is far from over |

Lamasta: Those containers are sealed! How do you expect somebody to meet a sealed container that has passed through security checks and start wondering what may or may not be inside when he has a deadline to drop it at its destination The border forces are supposed to check that stuff and force the drivers to check properly instead of rushing 1 Like |
Re: Driver Of The Cold Truck That Killed 39 Migrants Has Been Charged With Murder by Lamasta(m): 7:28pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
midnighter:No matter how sealed the container might be as a driver he is suppose to know what is inside the container for security purpose and its because he did not do that that is what is getting him into trouble now. |
Re: Driver Of The Cold Truck That Killed 39 Migrants Has Been Charged With Murder by midnighter(f): 8:03pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
Lamasta: I understand what you are saying, but The container can be sealed at another location and then he is given an invoice telling him what's inside. The border security don't have enough staff so they tell drivers to check for themselves what may be inside, which leads to irregularities. Besides there are only some staff who know how to interpret scans The driver does his own checks in the presence of staff, if they give him the go ahead then he is free to take it The heat sensor is not the only available technology but the Belgian port had bad security At times they are coerced by gangs to carry people The fact that the media has jumped the gun and plastered his face all over doesn't mean he is guilty, we have to follow the story |

desperation can make one to act foolishly, how can an adult be convinced to walk into a refrigerated truck? its succide. |
Re: Driver Of The Cold Truck That Killed 39 Migrants Has Been Charged With Murder by midnighter(f): 8:07pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
airminem: It was on because he was transporting biscuits. They need to be kept at a certain temperature otherwise they will spoil and he will get into trouble They entered there to escape the heat sensor but sniffer dogs would still have picked them up. That Belgian port only has heat sensor so smugglers targeted it because their security is not too good 1 Like |
