Why are Pakistanis risking their lives to get to Europe?

At least 16 Pakistanis have died in a migrant boat accident off the coast of Libya, Pakistani officials said Tuesday. Survivors of a migrant boat rescued in the Atlantic Ocean near Morocco in January have come home in recent days with harrowing stories to tell. VOA Pakistan bureau chief Sarah Zaman met with a survivor as well as relatives of victims to find out why young Pakistani men are willing to risk their lives to get to Europe.
