Female Trafficking: Conceptualisation of the Problem

Abstract

Trafficking is an offence which is not only complex in nature but is spreading its tentacles throughout the world without any discrimination of region, sex, creed, religion or race. Trafficking can involve movement of any man/woman/minor girl/minor boy of any age; healthy or diseased, fit or handicapped from any one part of the world to another part of the world for any type possible exploitation. But trafficking becomes nastiest when it involves females as trafficked victims and irrefutable is the fact that trafficking in women and children is an obscene affront to their dignity and rights.
