The General Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Evidence, in collaboration with the Sunni Endowments Administration, organised a workshop focused on combating human trafficking. The event aimed to heighten awareness about the critical need to address human trafficking crimes and to bolster Bahrain’s ongoing efforts in this field.
During the workshop, His Eminence Dr. Shaikh Habib Al-Namliti, Head of the Research Group at the Sunni Endowments Administration, delivered a keynote speech titled “The Role of the Tolerant Islamic Sharia in Combating the Crime of Human Trafficking.”
Dr. Shaikh Al-Namliti highlighted that Bahrain’s Constitution and laws, derived from Islamic Sharia, explicitly prohibit human trafficking and exploitation. He emphasised that human trafficking undermines human dignity and leads to significant moral, economic, social, and psychological harms.
Dr. Shaikh Al-Namliti stressed the necessity of addressing human trafficking by understanding its causes, recognizing its forms, and criminalising its practice. He underscored the importance of upholding contracts, treating workers with respect, and ensuring that workers are not overburdened.
