Protecting Victims of Human Trafficking From Liability

Abstract

  • Discusses the difficult issue of ‘non-liability’ for crimes committed by people who are victims of trafficking
  • Draws on human rights, victim rights and criminal law theory to argue why a provision on non-liability needs to exist
  • Draws comparisons between crimes committed by human trafficking victims and by victims of domestic abuse and child soldiers
  • Proposes an alternative provision which states and regional bodies could adopt
