He noted with appreciation the arrest of Usman Jajja involved in numerous human trafficking cases, saying: “The black business of human trafficking has earned bad name for Pakistan while a number of nationals lost their lives in boats capsized incidents near Italy and Morrocco which also created huge embarrassment for the country abroad.”

The prime minister said that he called a meeting with all the authorities and officers to convey appreciation on his part and on behalf of the government and the people.

The premier directed the agencies to further intensify operations against human traffickers.

During the meeting, Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry and secretary Interior briefed the prime minister about the performance of the agencies.

The FIA and IB director generals also briefed the prime minister about the arrest of gang leaders, operators and facilitators involved in human trafficking.
