Namibia given unacceptable rating, regarding human trafficking.

President Hage Geingob on Friday, reportedly, blasted the American delegation to Namibia, questioning their report released last year, which claimed that Namibia has a high incidence of human trafficking.

Geingob was responding to senator Ben Cardin's comments on the unacceptable rating of Namibia as per Trafficking In Persons Report (TIP) by the American embassy. Geingob reacted, saying that he keeps hearing of the report and it shocks him because Namibia is presented as if it is involved in human trafficking.

According to the report, last year, Angolan women were forced into prostitution in Namibia and a Namibian was identified as a trafficking victim in South Africa.
