Immigration authorities in Zambia have arrested three foreigners for alleged human trafficking, a spokesperson said on Tuesday.
Namati Nshika, Immigration Department Spokesperson, said the foreigners — two Kenyans and one Somalian — were arrested in Lusaka, the country’s capital, last week for suspected trafficking of six Somalians into the country.
The victims, including three females, two males and a child aged between five and seven years, were found at a lodge in one of the residential areas in the city, he said.
He said the three suspects were currently detained while the victims have been placed under protection.
