Oman launches ‘Aman' to curb human trafficking
The Royal Oman Police (ROP) and the Foreign Ministry launched 'Aman', a comprehensive campaign against human trafficking under the auspices of Shaikh Khalifa bin Ali al Harthy, Under-Secretary of the Foreign Ministry for Political Affairs (Chairman of the National Committee to Combat Human Trafficking) on the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons at the Diplomatic Club on Wednesday. The three-month national awareness campaign is aimed at promoting a culture of crime prevention and support for crime victims, as part of relevant local and international institutional cooperation, will be carried out in coordination with relevant authorities. The campaign which underlines the national commitment to protect human dignity and humanity in line with the Oman Vision 2040, envisages its commitment to combat trafficking in persons. Speaking to the media, Ahmed bin Talib al Jabri, Assistant Attorney-General and Deputy Chairman of the NCCHT, said that the launch of 'Aman' reflects the Sultanate of Oman's stance in the face of human trafficking and represents the integrated roles of security, judicial, legislative and humanitarian institutions. He further opined that security in the Sultanate of Oman is not merely the result of laws and regulations; rather, it is an authentic principle rooted in the values of the state and society. It is derived from a civilisational and cultural heritage that preserves everyone and gives them a sense of confidence and reassurance. Speaking to the Observer, Major Khalid bin Ali Tabuk, Assistant Director of the Department of Combating Human Trafficking at the Royal Oman Police (ROP), advised each one to follow the rules and regulations existing in their countries before embarking on overseas journey and to check the documents including visa and labour agreement for authenticity to avoid human trafficking and to report the same to the nearest ROP centre. In his working paper titled 'Combating Human Trafficking and the ROP's role in discovering victims of human trafficking', Major Khalid quoted various cases of human trafficking crimes tackled by the ROP and the various means of reporting such crimes to the authorities. The three-month-long campaign emphasises that combating human trafficking is a collective responsibility that requires awareness, cooperation and continued work; and one of the core principles upon which the Sultanate of Oman is founded is that safety is a human right, not a privilege granted to some and not others.
