Response and intervention

The little I know, I got from this article: http://www.mmegi.bw/index.php?sid=1&aid=1&dir=2007/June/Tuesday12 I really just wanted to get this town put on the map, as the article discusses it as an area adjacent to farms where there is most likely to be occurrence of child labour, that is linked to child trafficking in Botswana.

Botswana police are investigating a human trafficking ring thought to be responsible for trafficking more than 1000 Batswana from the country and selling them for cheap labour, sexual exploitation, servitude and debt bondage in Europe. Police investigations are focusing on Business Consultants who are believed to be spiders in the extensive web that is believed to have trafficked at least 1000 Batswana. A source close to the investigation believes that it is more. So far, eight business consultants and six other suspects believed to be part of the human trafficking ring are already in police custody.
