Children exploited as Britain faces boom in trafficking 
By Elizabeth Day
(Filed: 27/07/2003) 
Child-trafficking into Britain is increasing rapidly, with 
thousands of young children being brought into the country and 
exploited as prostitutes or drug mules, according to a report by the 
United Nations Children's Fund.
A forthcoming Unicef report, Stop the Traffic, warns that children 
are being transported from an increasing number of countries by 
traffickers who are using a variety of methods to avoid detection.
The organisation fears that the children, mainly from West Africa, 
Eastern Europe and Asia, face a life of exploitation and abuse at 
the hands of their captors, many of whom escape unpunished because 
of a loophole in anti-trafficking laws.
Children as young as seven have been sold by their families, taken 
away from their homes and subjected to months of severe sexual and 
physical abuse from traffickers who often masquerade as their 
protectors. 
The report also cites examples of 12 and 13-year-olds used to 
smuggle heroin into the country and of underage children forced into 
prostitution with threats of violence and voodoo.
In other cases uncovered by Unicef, several West African girls have 
been lured to Britain with the promise of a good education only to 
be forced into a life of domestic exploitation. Unable to speak the 
language, they found themselves treated as little more than 
servants: cleaning houses and doing domestic chores without pay for 
wealthy families.
Trafficked children are also forced to work in sweatshops and 
restaurants or as beggars and pickpockets in an organised crime 
racket. The children, who are intimidated by threats of violence, 
rape and extortion, are often too frightened to admit to being 
trafficked.
Although it is illegal to traffic people into the UK for commercial 
sexual exploitation, children trafficked for other reasons remain 
unprotected. 
The report, to be published on July 30 and based on interviews with 
the social services, the police, Immigration Control and charities, 
calls on the Government to close this loophole and fund safe-house 
accommodation for trafficking victims.
It also calls for the establishment of proper monitoring procedures 
and the introduction of a six-month "reflection period" to assess 
the needs of each child on entry to the UK.
The report found that there were more than 250 known cases of child 
trafficking into Britain over the past five years but warns that a 
lack of monitoring suggests that the real figures are likely to be 
much higher. Police are unable to collate comprehensive statistics 
because trafficking is not a criminal offence.
Unicef investigations, however, uncovered a number of shocking 
incidences of abuse. One London-based child trading network involved 
a woman who had acquired 12 children so that she could claim 
benefits for them.
The case of "Adam", the Nigerian boy whose torso was found floating 
in the Thames in 2001, is also cited by the report as an instance of 
child trafficking for the purpose of ritual killing.
Other case studies outlined by the report include "Natasha", who 
fled from an abusive father in Romania and was sold into the sex 
trade. After being brought to the UK, she was repeatedly sexually 
exploited and beaten by her trafficker for six months before 
escaping.
Trafficking operations are gathering children from an increasing 
range of countries. Although there are no precise statistics, the 
report found that most children are brought from African nations, 
including Sierra Leone and Nigeria, but a growing number are also 
being shipped in from Eastern European countries, the report says.
The problem is affecting cities all over the UK, whose authorities 
have previously been unaware of the issue. In Newcastle and 
Nottingham, evidence of child trafficking has only started to emerge 
in recent months.
The problem is further compounded by the increasingly acceptable 
cultural practice of parents in developing countries sending their 
children abroad to be given education or work. Many parents send 
young children to Britain believing that they will receive a better 
education here: often, however, the truth is far more desperate.
Victoria Climbie, the eight-year-old girl born on the Ivory Coast 
and sent by her parents to live with Marie-Therese Kouao, her great 
aunt, in London in 1998, is one such case. 
Victoria died of severe abuse in 2000: a police inquiry revealed 
that Kouao had claimed benefits for Victoria in France and Britain 
before subjecting her to horrific abuse. A year later Kouao and her 
boyfriend, Clinton Manning, received life sentences for Victoria's 
murder.
The Laming Report into her death, which called for "proper, 
coherent protection" for vulnerable children, prompted the 
appointment of a Children's Minister and the publication of a Green 
Paper on children at risk.
The Unicef report claims that between 8,000 and 10,000 children in 
the UK are privately fostered and that many of these could be abused 
or exploited without anyone knowing that they are in the country.
David Bull, the executive director of Unicef UK, said: "It is a 
serious abuse of child rights and is the fastest-growing business of 
organised crime.
"Until recently, trafficking wasn't even illegal and is still only 
a crime if carried out for sexual exploitation. The Government must 
criminalise trafficking for all purposes and should introduce 
central funding for specialist care and protection for the victims."
The report is to be published this week as part of Unicef's End 
Child Exploitation campaign.

Ecco i veri colori dell'immigrazione e dei politici che la
promuovono: gli immigrati praticano il traffico di bambini,
impiegati come corrieri della droga, nel giro della prostituzione
minorile, e ne abusano in ogni modo.
Dove sono i buonisti, dove sono i tolleranti, dove sono
gli Ernesti e i brif, dove sono le autorita' politiche,
dove sono magistrati ulivisti e le forze dell'ordine,
dov'e' la commissione europea, cosa intendono fare
di fronte all'evidenza dell'orrore che e' il motivo principale
dell'immigrazione ?
Come puo' un buonista immigrazionista avere ancora il coraggio
di mostrarsi in pubblico ?
Gli immigrati non vengono in Europa "per fare i lavori che noi non
vogliamo piu' fare", quelli non vengono per integrarsi,
quelli vengono a spacciare, rubare uccidere, farsi assistere
con il denaro pubblico, stuprare, praticare il traffico
di bambini, di organi, di pelle umana (come in molti stati
africani), infiltrare cellule di integralisti islamici, etc.
Chi insiste a difendere l'immigrazione, chi insiste a sostenere
che "abbiamo bisogno di immigrati" va arrestato e messo in condizioni
di non nuocere alla civilizzazione, perche' l'immigrazione
dal terzo mondo sta riportando l'Europa piu' indietro
del Medio Evo.

 dell'immigrazione ?
Ci sono due questioni separate. La prima riguarda la cultura, e qui credo
che solo gli integralisti possano darmi torto. Buona parte dei paesi da cui
arriva l'immigrazione clandestina ha un livello sociale incompatibile col
nostro. La discriminazione sessuale è un dogma, la giustizia è spesso
sommaria, il "possesso" degli essere umani è ancora pratica abbastanza
comune. Un altro punto, e qui mi trovo in completo in disaccordo con te
invece, è quello della criminalità. Il punto non è che lo straniero viene
qui per fare le schifezze che elenchi, il punto è che determinati strati
sociali, in determinate condizioni di immoralità, fanno queste schifezze. Ma
le fanno anche i "locali"... Non è l'immigrazione il problema, non è neanche
la cultura: è l'applicazione di una certa cultura a un certo tipo di
immigrazione. Che si colpisca duramente chi commette queste schifezze, ma
che paghino tutti mi sembra irragionevole. E' chiaro che all'abbassarsi del
livello cultura e sociale il rischio aumenta, ma non si deve e non si può
fare giustizia sommaria noi stessi.
Hai però effettivamente posto un punto importante: perché si citano solo le
reprimende ai governi occidentali ma non quelle ai paesi la cui società
accetta queste cose?
