Human trafficking in Serbia

While the government’s efforts to investigate trafficking are seen as continued and active, the report faults Serbia for weak punishment.

“The law prescribes penalties for trafficking that are sufficiently stringent; however, traffickers may receive imposed sentences that are light or suspended,” the report concludes.

Serbia increased efforts to provide protection to victims and improved coordination with NGOs and international organizations over the past year, and demonstrated increased public awareness in 2006, the report said.

A significant increase in the number of Kosovo residents trafficked internally over the past year was also reported.

“Traffickers shifted the commercial sex trade into private homes and escort services to avoid detection,” the document says.
