South Africa police rescue naked migrants held captive

South African police have rescued 26 migrants, believed to be from Ethiopia, who were being held captive in a house in a Johannesburg suburb.

Fifteen of the migrants were found naked inside the property, while 11 others, who had sustained injuries, were discovered nearby.

The injured migrants reportedly escaped by breaking through a window and forcing open a burglar bar.

The operation took place on Thursday evening in a north-eastern suburb of Johannesburg following a tip-off from concerned neighbors, according to police.
