Montenegro is a source, transit and destination country for men, women and children subjected to sex trafficking, the U.S. State Department has stated.

Montenegrin officials are involved in human trafficking, the State Department’s 2012 Trafficking in Persons Report reads.

Trafficking victims are mostly women and girls from Eastern Europe and other Balkan countries, including Serbia and Kosovo, who migrate or are smuggled through the country en route to Western Europe and are subjected to sex trafficking in Montenegro, the State Department said in the report.

The Nigerian Medical Association in Imo State has accused billionaire and governor Rochas Okrocha of trafficking human organs.

He is accused of doing so “with officials of Turkey and Croatia, and with Hashim Thaci.”

Thaci is currently Kosovo’s deputy prime minister and foreign minister.

The Kosovo police have shut down 34 night clubs across Kosovo as part of an operation aimed at preventing human trafficking.

A directorate in charge of investigating this type of crime checked 71 establishments during March, April and May, and IDed 389 women employed there.
