Need to curb human trafficking stressed
ISLAMABAD, June 9: The under-training sub-inspectors (SIs) of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) as well as other officials agreed that the menace of human trafficking needed to be dealt with an iron hand.
They were expressing these views at the end of a training workshop on human trafficking organized by the Society for Human Rights and Prisoners Aid (SHARP), a non-governmental organization in Islamabad.
Earlier, the SHARP chairman, Liaquat Banori, said there was a need to come up with a strategic plan to promote mass awareness about the problem and forge close coordination between government agencies, NGOs and the international agencies working in this field to prevent human trafficking.
Mukhtar Kansi, the NGO’s consultant for human rights study centre in Peshawar, conducted the training.
