Abstract :

Like prostitution, the history of human trafficking is lengthy and illustrious. For enormous sums of money, humans have been put up for auction. The drug cartels' financial gain from people trafficking is also widely known. After then, terrorist groups receive funding from the drug lords to be used for their own objectives. A multidisciplinary approach to combat human trafficking is not only recommended, but also required, as the mode of operation used by the perpetrators becomes more intricate and nuanced as the crime progresses. There have been numerous reports in recent years, particularly in the OSCE zone, linking human trafficking to terrorism. The moral and legal foundations that direct the fight against terrorism and human trafficking are critically examined in this study in order to acquire a deeper understanding of how these two distinct and complicated crimes overlap. Included in the discussion are the ways in which anti-trafficking instruments can be employed to counter terrorism, thereby helping to identify and safeguard trafficking victims and apprehend those accountable? Additionally, the intrinsically exploitative character of terrorist groups is examined from the perspective of human trafficking, employing illustrative instances that demonstrate aspects of trafficking.
