More
than 3,000 people are trafficked into the UK every year, according to
official statistics - and that number is rising. They come from all over
the world, but by far the biggest share are those from Albania. In
2015, this relatively small country accounted for over 600 potential
victims - about a fifth of the total. Of those, the vast majority were
female, and most of them were forced into prostitution. The authorities
in Albania have been criticised for failing to crack down on the problem
with just 18 convictions last year.
