Análisis de Lay Ley 26.364 de Argentina:
Prevencion Y Sancion De La Trata De Personas Y Asistencia A Sus
Victimas
First
anti-trafficking law passed in Argentina
On April 29, 2008, the Senate and the
Chamber of Deputies of the nation of Argentina passed the first
national law against human trafficking. The legislation is called
Law 26.364 - The Prevention and Punishment of the Trafficking of
Persons, and Assistance for Victims.
What will happen in the many cases in
which the victims are women who were trafficked from the Dominican
Republic?
The situation of Dominican women is
worse than ever, and involves a world of prostitution, trafficking,
drugs and drug mules. Many women have fallen prey, and they have all
been silenced. The Argentine prostitution continues to depend upon
trafficked Dominican women.
This would be a good time to see the
development by Argentine and Dominican authorities of an
anti-trafficking campaign, directed by the United Nations Office on
Drugs and Crime (UNODC). Organized crime clearly at the middle of
Dominican trafficking to Argentina. The problem is that this fact is
ignored and hidden. An effective project needs to be created, one
that is more than blowing bubbles in the air.

Marita Verón
Rescatan a 40 niñas forzadas a
prostituirse en varios prostíbulos argentinos
Forty undernourished children between
the ages of 11 and 12 have been rescued from 30
brothels in the province of Rioja, in northeast
Argentina, where they were sexually exploited.
The announcement was made by Susana
Trimarco during ceremonies to mark the opening of
her foundation dedicated to rescuing young victims
of human trafficking. Trimarco has struggled for 7
years to recover her own daughter, Marita Verón, who
was kidnapped by a sex trafficking network in April
of 2002 in the city of San Miguel Tucumán.
Trimarco's efforts have saved dozens
of lives. With her new foundation, she plans to
extend her work, searching for victims, rescuing
them and working with them during their
recuperation.
Trimarco pointed the finger at the
local police chief, who she accused of "wanting to
block the sun with his own hands." Thanks to
Trimarco'e efforts, dozens of victims have been
rescued from trafficking mafias, a judge has been
sacked, and 30 other people have investigated and
processed.

Susana Trimarco: "Women disappear in Argentina every

in the sex industry."
Trimarco said her goals for the coming year are to
establish a foundation to help fight human
trafficking, get more governmental involvement, and,
of course, to find her beloved Marita.

cuál es el código de su país para hablar por teléfono, lo ignoran. No tienen
