Lyssna: Few cases of suspected human exploitation go to trial
-
Few cases of suspected human exploitation ever go to trial in Sweden, according to Swedish Radio’s investigative news program Kaliber.

The hope was that new legislation introduced several years ago would lead to more prosecutions and convictions for people suspected of having exploited or coerced others.

The Swedish Prosecution Authority says 91 preliminary investigations have been carried out from 2018 until the end of last year but only 12 people have been indicted.
