Since the outset of organised criminality human trafficking has adapted to current methods of interception and prosecution in criminal law matters, rendering it one of the most serious activities falling under organised crime. In fact over numerous decades various parts of the world particularly those less developed or going through times of crisis have fallen prey to traffickers of human beings who have exploited the vulnerability of their victims so as to entice them into the trafficking ring. This and the various means used by traffickers as well as the purpose for the trafficking, not excluding the fact that humans are intimately being used by these traffickers to generate illicit profit, is what renders human trafficking so despicable. Moreover globalisation and the ongoing development worldwide as well as modern communication methods and freedom of movement have contributed greatly to the facilitation and eventual increase of human trafficking activities and this has ultimately raised the alarm worldwide for adequate methods to be taken in order to curb this phenomenon.
