Enslaved on a British Cannabis Farm

in #humantrafficking • 5 years ago


Grea “long read” by theGuardian about the life of a trafficked Vietnamese human boy who ended up on a cannabis farm in the UK.

Later he would get caught up in the British penal system, due to the ineptitude of the police services to recognize its situation as a trafficked human, later enslaved.

A haunting and shameful story. Sadly enough, one of many in the UK as there are said to be thousands of such cannabis farms across the country, many being worked on by trafficked Asians.
