Скачать или смотреть Cambodia: Government allows slavery and torture to flourish inside hellish scamming compounds

Amnesty International’s latest research has concluded that the Cambodian government is aware of scamming compounds across the country where trafficking victims and migrant workers are subjected to forced criminality, enslavement, deprivation of liberty and torture.

Amnesty International has identified more than 50 scamming compounds, locations where human trafficking victims and migrant workers are subjected to enslavement, forced labour, torture and deprivation of liberty across the country. It is highly likely that more compounds exist than those in this report.

The Cambodian government has investigated 21 of the scamming compounds featured in our report, often making multiple rescues from the sites over years. Despite this, our report shows that scamming compounds frequently continue to operate with human rights abuses documented after police investigations.

Ultimately, we conclude that the Cambodian state was aware that these compounds existed and did not fulfil their obligations to investigate and to shutter them. Their failure is so severe that it amounts to acquiescence to the abuses and points to what could be complicity.
