Top 15 Cities With Highest Human Trafficking in the World

15. Islamabad, Pakistan

DAWN reports that two “Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) officials have been arrested and formally charged… for their involvement in the illegal trafficking” on the airport in Islamabad in May 2017. As noted in the article, “Pakistan is a key route for global human trafficking networks.” The biggest human trafficking problem they deal with is bonded labor, where “an initial debt assumed by a worker as part of the terms of employment is exploited, ultimately entrapping other family members.” Bonded labor is mostly concentrated in brick-making and agriculture.
