MALAWI. CIVIL SOCIETY CALLS FOR DEATH PENALTY FOR HUMAN TRAFFICKING

several groups, including the Young Women's Christian Association of Malawi, mounted fresh pressure on MPs asking them to press for legislation on human trafficking, especially of children. Chrissie Maluni, a member of Human Rights Consultative Committee, HRCC, said it was sad that children were being wooed into going to countries like South Africa after being promised jobs only to be forced into prostitution. Maluni said human trafficking perpetrators should be severely punished, including getting a death sentence.
