Bangladesh: Dhaka seeks technological innovations to combat human trafficking

DHAKA, 31 July 2022, (TON): Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen has said “developed countries and the international partners need to ensure smooth transfer of the latest technological innovations to developing countries to effectively combat human trafficking in person.”

He said “human traffickers equipped with technology can do greater harm but the government agencies and relevant stakeholders can undo the efforts of the trafficker effectively with the help of technology.”

He said “we need to keep in mind that human trafficking is trans-boundary crime and the traffickers may possess better technology than it is available in a particular country.”

Momen was speaking at National Consultation on Combating Human Trafficking in the Context of Use of Technology and its Abuse at a city hotel.
