Magister Legum - LLM (Criminal Justice and Procedure) / The fight against human trafficking requires a broad range of approaches, including the
eradication of crimes that facilitate trafficking of human beings. The idea of committing
crimes within crimes is common in most national regimes just as it is in transnational and
organised crimes. For instance, transnational crimes such as money laundering and human
trafficking always are accompanied by various types of corruption such as petty, grand or
bureaucratic corruption. As the Southern African Development Community (SADC) States
Parties strengthen strategies to address human trafficking, the region continues to face an
increase of trafficking of persons into Europe and Asia, as well as within Africa. There are
various causes of human trafficking, such as poverty, hunger and deteriorating economies,
as victims are promised luxurious lives in the countries to which they are trafficked. The
poverty and stunted economies in most African countries make it easy for corruption to
flourish because most police and immigration officers occupy low-paying ranks, making
them highly susceptible to bribery and other corrupt incentives.
