U.S. Agents Partner with Kenyan Forces to Combat Human Trafficking

Five Kenyan detectives have joined seven African nations in Botswana for a US-led training aimed at enhancing investigative capacity against human trafficking.

The five are part of 40 detectives from specialised units amongst them, the anti-human trafficking, child protection unit and the crimes unit of the DCI, who will up their skills in effective application of law enforcement tools, victim identification and protection and close collaboration with the victims.

“This training targets at least 40 officers drawn from units across the country, and others from Botswana, Cameroon, Djibouti, Gabon, Mauritius and Lesotho. The training focuses on refining practical investigative skills and deepening understanding of trafficking dynamics”, the US Embassy stated.
