FIA Takes Bold Step in Combatting Human Trafficking with Launch of Dedicated Hotline
In another development, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) in Pakistan has launched the country’s first Trafficking In Persons (TIP) Hotline, providing a platform for the public to register complaints against human trafficking. To report cases of human trafficking, individuals can call the hotline at 111-247-786.
This initiative, developed in collaboration with the International Labor Organization (ILO) and funded by the Australian High Commission, introduces a national referral mechanism and a Management Information System (MIS) to enhance services for victims of human trafficking.
During the launch ceremony, Director General FIA Mohsin Hassan Butt emphasized the significance of the National TIP Hotline project in the ongoing efforts to combat trafficking crimes. The Australian deputy high commissioner praised the collaborative efforts of FIA and ILO, considering the hotline as a groundbreaking step to address human trafficking comprehensively.
The initiative aims to provide comprehensive support to victims and streamline the reporting and handling process for human trafficking cases across Pakistan.
