 NAPTIP raids Onitsha hotel, arrests 4 suspected traffickers, rescues 17 victims


The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has arrested four suspected human traffickers and rescued 17 alleged victims during a raid on a popular hotel in Onitsha, Anambra State.


The operation, carried out around the 33 Area of the commercial city, was conducted with the support of the military, NAPTIP said in a statement on Monday.


The agency stated that two additional suspects allegedly involved in child trafficking and the buying and selling of babies within the South-East were also apprehended during the coordinated operation.


NAPTIP disclosed that four of the rescued victims tested positive for HIV and are currently receiving counselling and care from the agency’s caregivers in collaboration with volunteers from the Anambra State AIDS Control Agency.


The agency said the raid followed credible intelligence from a non-state actor in Anambra State, which indicated that underage girls were being harboured in the hotel and allegedly exploited for commercial sex.


Investigations revealed that residents of the area had earlier raised concerns over suspicious activities at the hotel, particularly the frequent influx of men patronising underage girls within the facility, which reportedly has about 45 rooms.
