One survivor named Uzair Bhat said Gujjar falsely promised him safe and legal routes to Europe. He sent BBC Verify proof of funds transferred to a bank account under Gujjar's real name, Khawar Hassan.But when Uzair arrived in Mauritania, the smuggler backtracked.
"He said going by air will not work from here. I'll send you by a big ship," Uzair recalled. "Please cooperate, your visa [to Europe] won't come through."Eventually Uzair relented.As well as Ali, Shahzad and Uzair, BBC Verify identified two other migrants who bought journeys from Gujjar.
Once they arrived in Nouakchott they say they were placed in "safe houses" - a term used for buildings tucked away in obscure alleys where migrants are held illegally by smugglers.One person who used a different agent said he also stayed in safe houses run by Gujjar.
BBC Verify confirmed the location of one to an area near the port of Nouakchott, which survivors say Gujjar occasionally visited.
Survivors BBC Verify spoke to say they set off from Nouakchott in a small fishing boat in the early hours on 2 January. Most of those onboard bought passage from smugglers in their hometowns in Pakistan.It's inspired by Monica L Miller's book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, published in 2009.

"The theme this year is not only timely," said Gala committee member Usher, "but also speaks to our rich culture that should always be widely celebrated."Expect lots of references from both the male and female guests to the role black style has played over the centuries, particularly in menswear.
