Human trafficking is the worst kind of crime that is committed against humanity and shames us all. While there are issues with imprinting an exact deffinition on Human Trafficking, there is reliable definition enshrined in International Law for the purpose of dealing with human trafficking issues around the World. As per UN protocol, trafficking in persons would entail the recruitment, transportation, transfer, and harbouring or receipt of person with the help of threats or force of one kind or another. As it stands, this definition is used across the world to determine incidents of trafficking. However, there remain a confusion in identifying trafficking cases from others siminar crimes like smuggling of persons.
