On May 9 2021, Moussa Balde, a 22-year-old boy commited suicide while being confined in the Pre-removal detention centre of Turin.
Migrants lawyers from the Association for Immigration Law Studies rapidly released a black book describing the inhumane living conditions of migrants detained in such centers.
Affected by this report, our team decided to translate this Italian report in both English and French, and improve the format of this report by highlighting key information, and adding pictures taken by ASGI. The translations as well as the new italian version of the report are now available in full open access.
