Vanuatu: Alleged human trafficking of over 100 Bangladeshi workers, now stranded, by furniture store owners
Dozens of Bangladeshis are stuck in Port Vila, Vanuatu's capital, after they were trafficked in what may be the Pacific's biggest human trafficking case. The workers were allegedly brought to Vanuatu illegally by the owners of a home and furniture store, Mr Price. The owners are facing several counts of human trafficking, and allegedly arranged and facilitated the workers' entry in Vanuatu using deception, denial of freedom of movement, and coercion or threat of violence.
