By COLLINS OMULOMore by this AuthorThe government has been challenged to help tackle the human trafficking menace in Kenya by setting aside funds for training of Judiciary staff to prosecute such cases. Kenya accounts for about 328,000 cases of human trafficking. Speaking in Nairobi on Monday, Director of Judiciary Training Institute Kathurima M’Inoti pointed out that the prosecution of human trafficking cases in the country is slow pace as most judges, magistrates and prosecutors lack proper training in handling such cases. “There is general agreement that as a country, we have several cases both as source and origin of human trafficking and that explains why we are focusing on it. This time we are focusing on magistrates many of whom are involved in trials of offences related to human trafficking,” he said.
