Overview

Maxwell Matewere, a legal and crime prevention expert, presents his second educational book on human trafficking in Malawi. In the new edition, entitled: ""Human Trafficking Exposed"", Matewere uses his two decades of experience in combating this crime and protecting its victims to provide an in-depth analysis of a global, complex and illegal multiple billion-dollar activity. Human trafficking, which is also described as modern-day slavery, is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of people through force, fraud or deception, with the aim of exploiting them for profit. Men, women and children of all ages can become victims of this crime. Traffickers often use violence or fraudulent employment agencies and fake promises of education and job opportunities to trick and coerce their victims. Matewere uses real-life cases to illustrate the actions of the criminals and the locations where the exploitation occurs and also discusses the mental and physical impact on the victims and their long and difficult road to recovery. Through thirteen chapters, the reader is taken on a journey into the dark world of human trafficking, to places where they would not imagine this crime takes place at the hands of individuals, they least expect to be traffickers. The author describes the criminals as ""marauding wolves in a sheep skin"" who prey on innocent people under the pretext of offering a better life in Malawi or in other countries in the region - drawing their victims into a ""cobweb"" which is difficult to escape from.
