Interpol demands government to put in place stringent rules on companies exporting labour so as they are accountable for the safety of workers they send out for employment. The Deputy Director Interpol and International Relations and Commissioner of Police Benson Oyo-Nyeko made the demand while launching a study assessment report on schemes, routes and factors promoting  prevalence of Human Trafficking across the borders in Uganda compiled by the Platform for labour Action held at Silver springs hotel in Bugolobi, Kampala.

Nyeko says that labour firms should be responsible for monitoring those workers sent abroad for jobs and if some of the workers are stuck, the labour companies must return them. He said that there should be interventions between neighboring countries to stop acts of trafficking in persons within the region.

The board member with the plat form for labour Action David Omoding while releasing the report says that factors promoting victims of international trafficking include offer of free tickets and visa arrangements by interested labour firms, gaps in the law relating to punishments for illegal recruiters and lack of government capacity to monitor and stop illegal recruitment agencies.

The coordinator of the police anti-human trafficking task force, Moses Binoga said that Ugandans should be cautious about where children are taken since many have been recruited mining workers going to the Democratic Republic of Congo and ended up in terrorists groups.
