- Promised a job in Europe, she was trafficked to Libya instead. What followed was years of abuse: rape, forced labour, a late-term abortion, and repeated attempts to break her.
Today, she lives in Malta, raising triplets alone while waiting for her asylum application to be processed.
Sarah’s* story is hard to watch — but it’s harder to ignore.
This interview is part of Connecting the Dots: Migration, Gender Justice and EU Solidarity, an event led by TAMA seeking to raise awareness on sexual gender-based violence in the process of migration.

- Kamila was only 18 when she came to Malta. She was completely alone, couldn't speak English and had just spent years detained in a Libyan prison for attempting to escape abuse.
She was beaten, starved and sexually abused before eventually managing to cross to Malta by sea. She didn't know where she was going but anywhere would have been better than the North African country ravaged by civil war and known for its inhumane treatment of migrants.
Kamila tried to go through the legal route, waiting years to get confirmation from an international protection agency that booked a flight from Libya to Canada. However, the head of a migration detention centre - in which she spent two years - barred her documents for his personal amusement and vendetta.
Now 24 years old and working in the iGaming industry, Kamila sat down with Lovin Malta to share her story as part of a wider campaign led by NGO TAMA to shed light on what it takes to seek refuge in Euro...

“I’m sorry I’m saying this, I don’t want to insult you Gozitans because I know there are so many intelligent people, but you have three ministers who are competing against each other on nepotism,” Cassola started, triggering three elderly women who had sat down to follow the debate being organised by Lovin Malta and Malta Today at Pjazza Indipendenza.
Cassola went on to rip on Clint Camilleri, Jo Etienne Abela and Anton Refalo, bringing up everything from their drivers to claims made against them. “So with this type of mentality and these types of ministers, how can Gozo progress?” Cassola asked, angering the trio in the audience.

During an Ewropej fil-Pjazza debate in Gozo, organised by Lovin Malta and MaltaToday, Bajada argued that, since Malta only gets to elect six out of the EP’s 720 MEPs, national unity is crucial.
However, Volt Malta candidate Matthias Iannis Portelli countered that MEPs are elected to represent the interests of their citizens, which may not always be aligned with the interests of their government.
“When the country is doing something wrong in terms of corruption, you should speak out against it, not protect it,” he said.
