♦ Human trafficking with children, women and men is a form of organized crime and is directly related to the criminal activities of gangs and criminal networks.

Human Trafficking falls under the category of international sex trade, which offers sex tourist services like prostitution, forced labor and slavery.

This problem has grown at an accelerating rate, which calls for an international cooperation to deal with it.

However, the difficulty in dealing with this crimes lies in the lack of a real and accurate statistics which is usually replaced by statistical figures drawn from the International Organization for Immigration that do not really show the huge scale of this crime.

What further aggravates the problem is that most countries do not keep statistical records on the crime, except for those records that address cases of criminal justice, and that activities of human trafficking are conducted in a very secretive manner and are usually given legal covers and names.

Nowadays human trafficking is blooming in civilized Europe with millions of dollars as profit for those who are involved.
