News24.com | New data tool to help combat human trafficking

You Need Posted on by

A new data tool is expected to collate more accurate data relating to human trafficking, which will help in the fight against the scourge, Deputy Minister of the Justice and Constitutional Development John Jeffery announced on Thursday.

During the launch of the new Prevention and Combating of Trafficking in Persons National Policy Framework (NPF) in Pretoria, Jeffery said the need for reliable data has often been raised, and the new data tool is the answer.

The data tool, developed by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and the Department of Justice aims to collect data and focuses on important questions relating to human trafficking.

“For example, the total number of trafficking victims (suspected and/or confirmed) identified by government during a specific reporting period, as well as an indication of the form of trafficking and the details – sex, age, nationality – of the victims and the perpetrators,” Jeffery said.

Other questions the data tool asks include:

– How many victims were identified during the reporting period by NGOs or other non-governmental entities?

– Of these, how many victims did the government refer to care facilities for assistance? How many victims were assisted during the reporting period?”

The deputy minister said these are just some of the details that need to be known in order to adequately combat trafficking in persons (TIP).

“The data tool tells us about the methods of trafficking, in that the majority of victims detected were in smuggling cases from countries of origin which turned into trafficking during the journey to South Africa or at destination.”

Although data on all forms of trafficking in South Africa is scarce, Jeffery did say that in 2018, there were eight cases with successful convictions of perpetrators for trafficking in persons-related offences.

“These cases involved 14 accused persons and the sentences included, among others, eight life sentences and a sentence of 18 years imprisonment.”

Quoting an international statistic, Jeffery said in respect of sex trafficking alone, the International Labour Organisation estimates that there are 4.8 million people trapped in forced sexual exploitation globally.

Forms of trafficking

Jeffery also spoke about the types of human trafficking, saying that the new NPF will help direct South Africa’s efforts at all forms of trafficking.

“In other words, not only sex trafficking, but all forms of trafficking in persons, thereby creating a comprehensive legal tool to combat trafficking in persons in all its forms.

“Sex trafficking is but one form of human trafficking – there are many other forms, such as debt bondage, labour trafficking, organ smuggling, domestic servitude, forced marriage and forced criminality.”

He clarified that trafficking does not always mean people are brought or taken out of a country. There are instances of internal trafficking as well.

Prevention and Combating of Trafficking in Persons Act

The NPF will make the Prevention and Combating of Trafficking in Persons Act work better, according to Jeffery. 

“The NPF intends to support the implementation of the Act to ensure that the criminal justice system is effective in prosecuting criminals, protecting the victims of trafficking and promoting a cooperative and aligned response among all government departments, as well as with civil society organisations engaged in assisting and supporting trafficked persons,” said Jeffery.

“We passed the legislation because we were concerned by the increase of trafficking in persons, especially women and children, and the role played by organised criminal networks in the trafficking of persons globally.”

Jeffery said that while the legislation came into operation in 2015, the Act along with the NFP will bring South Africa a step closer to a much needed systemic response to the plight of trafficking in the country.

Sport24.co.za | Crusaders target fast start against Lions

You Need Posted on by

Cape Town – The Crusaders are eyeing a fast start in their Super Rugby encounter against the Lions in Christchurch on Friday.

The defending champions scored just seven first half points in their past two games – at home against the Brumbies and Highlanders – but managed to run out comfortable winners after stunning second half displays.

The Crusaders trailed 7-0 at half-time against the Brumbies before running out 36-14 victors, while they trailed 10-7 at the break against the Highlanders before winning 43-17.

According to the Stuff.co.nz website, the slow starts have been addressed, and it comes with a warning for the Lions ahead of Friday’s rematch of last year’s final in Christchurch.

“Obviously, we can’t always rely on the back end of our game. We’ll definitely look to fix that this week, start with a roar and finish with one, too,” Crusaders centre Braydon Ennor said.

Crusaders coach Scott Robertson said the reasons for scoring 72 points in the second half of their most recent wins, yet only managing a lone try against the Highlanders in the first half, could not be pinned on one factor.

“We’ve had a couple of desperate teams we’ve played against, obviously the Brumbies and the Highlanders were incredibly physical and we couldn’t get the ball back off them,” Robertson said.

“Really… a little bit about our discipline and our ability tactically and how could we hold the ball, and if they do hold the ball for a long time, how could we get it back off them?

“Is it a mindset thing, or is it a structural thing? We’ve covered both.”

The Crusaders are hunting their 25th straight win on home soil, one short of their record of 26 between 2004 and 2007.

The Lions, on the other hand, have a torrid record against the Crusaders, with only three wins in history and all of those coming at Ellis Park – 55-23 in 1996, 9-3 in 2007 and 42-25 in 2016.

The Cats, who were a combination of the Lions and Cheetahs, did beat the Crusaders 32-31 in Nelson in 2001.

Friday’s clash is scheduled for 09:35 (SA time).
