In her input to the first discussion group, Ms Kohler-Barnard stated that South Africa was currently very focussed on the Soccer World Cup, however, it was also very aware that with it would come the trafficking of women, youths and children. It was noted that the South African Police Service had secured a total conviction rate of just five cases for human trafficking in the last financial year, with only 29 successful detections, despite it being known that South Africa was a source, destination and transit country for trafficking in persons and was on an international human trafficking watch list.
