43 43 STRATEGY TO COMBAT HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTION PROSECUTION PROTECTION (Including Rehabilitation & Repatriation)

44 44 PREVENTION Government collaboration with IGOs and NGOs in the form of MOUs and MOCs for creating public awareness. District/Provincial administrations being involved in sensitization regarding negative effects of human trafficking. Enhancing document detection capability/ forgery detecting equipment Personal Identification Secure Comparison Evaluation System (PISCES), at all entry/exits Migration Management Cell in MOI Cont….

45 45 PREVENTION FIA link office at Oman Intercepting intending illegal immigrants -Inter Agency Task Force National Aliens Registration Authority (NARA) Case Management System (CMS) & Human Trafficking Information System (HUTIS)

46 46 PROSECUTION Prevention & Control of Human Trafficking Ordinance 2002 (PACHTO) Emigration Ordinance 1979 Passport Act 1974 Foreigner’s Act 1946 Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) Abolition of Bonded Labour Act 1997 Child Protection Act

47 47 PROTECTION  All the fugitives involved in Human Trafficking are listed down in the Police Stations of FIA and Provincial Police forces for an effective tracking system and victims are advised to approach a Police Station as and when they have any information on the where about/ movement of such fugitives.  FIA also focused on identification and protection of victims of forced migrant labour resulting from fraudulent job offers or involuntary servitude. For this purpose FIA established a link office in Muscat Sultanate of Oman that will eventually cover the Middle East as well.

48 48 PROTECTION  Link office Muscat, interviews each and every person arrested by the host government to identify if she/he is a victim or an accused facilitator in the trafficking offence. Victims are provided food/shelter and health services in the host country. Health services are expensive but essentially required for the weary victims who venture thousands of miles without much food supplies. This is not only done by the host government but they are provided the same services in Pakistan by FIA at the Karachi Port and Taftan-Quetta with the help of some local NGOs.

49 49 PROTECTION  They are encouraged to identify their traffickers and be a part of the investigations. In 2008, 3664 have been provided these services at the seaport and airports. So far, Muscat Link Office has a data base of around 7500 trafficked victims and 390 agents/facilitators. This information is promptly provided to the FIA Headquarters. In 2009, a 12 year old girl was lured by her real aunt to enter Muscat for flesh trade. The victim was identified, protected by the Pakistan Embassy provided all kind of support in Muscat and Pakistan. The aunt was arrested by FIA at the Karachi airport.

50 50 PROTECTION  Performance of FIA Link Office has reflected in the up- graduation of Sultanate of Oman and should also be reflected as good work done by the Government of Pakistan in the country report on Pakistan. The proposed link offices will have the same agenda, once they are established.  In order to achieve international liaison and coordinated efforts to curb transnational crime of human trafficking approval for establishment of link offices in Turkey, Greece, Iran and U.K is in the process. FIA’s liaison officer will be stationed in these link offices to effectively monitor the illegal activities of human traffickers and to provide assistance to the victims abroad. They will also bridge the gap between the countries for information/ intelligence sharing which will help in bringing good name for the country.

51 51 MAJOR CHALLENGES  Prospective economic workers traveling by air, having valid visa, difficult to detect.  Travel by land is the major mode adopted.  Porous Pak – Iran border difficult to manage.  Existence of human smugglers/facilitators in Iran/ Oman aggravates the problem.  Low amount of money charged by the human smugglers, is an added attraction.

52 52 Real time intelligence sharing between Australia and Pakistan through Focal Persons. Joint identification/interviewing teams to unearth following: 1. International networks, agents, sub-agents and facilitators. 2. Modus operandi of international network. 3. Money involved and mode of payment. 4. Other relevant information e.g. link with terrorist government personnel and money laundering etc. Capacity building trainings for immigration staff, especially for document examination, profiling and intelligence sharing /evidence gathering. ASSISTANCE REQUIRED FROM AUSTRALIA

53 53 ASSISTANCE REQUIRED FROM AUSTRALIA Resources for Immigration Check-posts/Anti Human Trafficking Circles. Illegal Migration is a 3 rd Big International problem and requires immediate consultancy with stakeholders. Need for Singapore and Thailand to cooperate in combating illegal migration through their countries. According to Australian Immigration Laws Illegal Migrants are accommodated which needs immediate attention on amendments in laws.

54 54 A National Action Plan 2009 by GOP launched with special focus on Legal, Media and Training Policies to counter human trafficking. Achievable targets set after identifying major challenges Integrated Border Management System (IBMS) to replace PISCES at all entry/exit points, linking passport and CNIC databases. Introduction of Biometric system through IBMS. WAY FORWARD

55 55 Establishing FIA Link offices in Iran, Turkey, Greece, UK and Spain. Creation of Immigration Intelligence Unit (IIU) Installation of E-gates at Islamabad, Karachi and Lahore international airports Linkage of immigration database with Interpol MIND and FIND database WAY FORWARD
