Some 141
human trafficking cases were reported last year, but only 15 were heard
by the courts, according to a new report by the Cambodian National
Council for Women. The group said the lack of prosecutions was partly
due to limited knowledge of a new law introduced last year to combat
trafficking and sex crimes. It said 172 suspects were arrested in 117
cases, but the courts had to date heard just 15 cases.
