The Deputy Chief Prosecutor for Human Trafficking announced that the Public Prosecution has concluded its investigation into a human trafficking case involving two Asian nationals, who have now been referred to the Criminal Court.
The first hearing is scheduled for June 3, 2025.
The case originated from a report submitted by the Anti-Human Trafficking Department, which alleged that the defendants had trafficked a female victim by coercing her into illegal and immoral acts for financial gain.
Upon receiving the report, the Public Prosecution promptly launched an investigation.
Testimony
Authorities took the victim’s testimony and placed her in a shelter operated by the National Committee to Combat Trafficking in Persons, as part of protective measures routinely applied in such cases.
The accused were interrogated, and legal actions were initiated against them.
Police investigations were also requested and corroborated the victim’s account. Investigators involved in the case provided further testimony supporting the charges. All investigative procedures have been reviewed.
