Near Tet, Nghe An Provincial Party Committee directed to resolutely prevent human trafficking crimes

On January 21, 2020, the Standing Committee of Nghe An Provincial Party Committee issued Document No. 5417-CV/TU requesting the Party Executive Committee, Party Delegation, Departments, Branches, Branches, Fatherland Front and mass organizations at the provincial, district, city, town Party Committees and affiliated Party Committees to focus on directing and effectively implementing the work of preventing and combating human trafficking in the province.

In recent times, the situation of human trafficking crimes in Nghe An province, although controlled, still has many potential complications. Nghe An is still identified by the Government and the Ministry of Public Security as one of the key localities for human trafficking crimes in the country. Human trafficking activities not only occur domestically but are also sold abroad (mainly to China and European countries) under the guise of: labor export, marriage brokerage, studying abroad... but in reality, it is to exploit labor, make sex slaves, buy and sell fetuses, buy and sell human organs.

Faced with the above situation, the Standing Committee of Nghe An Provincial Party Committee requested the entire political system to take drastic action, strengthen leadership and direction to synchronously and drastically implement solutions to prevent and combat human trafficking in the area. In particular, promote and diversify propaganda and dissemination of the Party's guidelines and policies and the State's laws on preventing and combating human trafficking.

Strengthen state management in the fields of residence management, conditional business lines regarding security and order; marriage brokerage centers, job introduction, sending people to study abroad or exporting labor to work abroad... to limit the causes, conditions, and loopholes for human trafficking criminals to take advantage of.

Ky Son police prosecuted a suspect in the case of selling a pregnant woman for 140 million VND.

Leaders effectively carry out the work of detecting, combating, arresting, investigating, and strictly handling human trafficking crimes, along with doing a good job of receiving victims and promptly supporting victims of trafficking when they return to their localities, creating conditions for victims to quickly reintegrate into the community.

Continue to strengthen domestic coordination and international cooperation in preventing and combating human trafficking, especially the rescue and protection of Vietnamese citizens from Nghe An who are victims of trafficking abroad; support in bringing victims back to the country.

A mother and her two children in Nghe An were rescued after 6 years of being sold to China.

Lead and direct the implementation of mechanisms and policies for economic development, job creation, and labor attraction in the locality, especially in key areas of human trafficking. The Party Committee of the Provincial People's Committee studies and proposes to the Provincial People's Council to issue a specialized resolution on preventing and combating human trafficking and regularly supervises the implementation of the resolution to ensure effectiveness./.
