Nearly 1.5 million Nepalis are at risk of various forms of human trafficking, says a new report by the country’s human rights commission. According to the report, released by the National Human Rights Commission, aspiring migrant workers, Nepalis working abroad, people in the adult entertainment sector, girls and women from rural areas, missing persons and child laborers are among the groups most vulnerable to trafficking. This makes Nepal a source, as well as a transit and destination for human trafficking.
The annual report of the human rights body estimated that nearly 35,000 Nepali citizens—15,000 men, 15,000 women and 5,000 children—were trafficked last year. Foreign employment and child labour made up nearly 70 percent of the total trafficked population, followed by those from the entertainment sector and those reported missing.
