He explained that the focus on human trafficking crimes as part of a training programme supports the directives of the UAE Government in relation to combating all forms of such crimes, and resolutely addressing any form of exploitation, in light of the legislations and laws in force that set deterrent penalties to offenders, while providing protection and care for victims.
He said UAE has attached great importance to this matter, within the framework of its efforts to achieve justice, preserve rights and protect members of society from any danger, while taking preventive and proactive steps to prevent crime in coordination and cooperation between the various competent authorities internally and externally, in addition to ensuring prosecution and punishment of criminal activities.
