THE Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has called on Malta to reconsider the terrorism charges it has brought against three migrant teenagers who were involved in commandeering a ship after it rescued them in the Mediterranean earlier this year.
The accused, aged 15, 16 and 19, two from Guinea and one from the Ivory Coast, could face between seven and 30 years behind bars if found guilty of terrorist activity.
The teens were rescued on March 28 along with over 100 other African refugees by the El Hiblu 1, a Turkish oil tanker off the coast of Libya.
