据英国广播公司,内政部称这些受害者包括被迫卖淫或在农场、工厂和渔船上廉价提供劳动力的妇女和女孩,她们来自一百多个国家,阿尔巴尼亚、尼日利亚、越南和罗马尼亚这些国家居于榜首,虽然其中也有出生于英国的成年人和儿童。

"The first step to eradicating the scourge of modern slavery is acknowledging and confronting its existence,"Home Secretary Theresa May was quoted by The Associated Press as saying. "The estimated scale of the problem in modern Britain is shocking and these new figures starkly reinforce the case for urgentaction."

美联社援引内政大臣TheresaMay的话报道,“要根除现代奴隶的根源首先要做的就是承认并面对它的存在。据判断,问题的严重性是惊人的,而这些新数据明显强调了采取紧急行动的必要性”。

The BBC reports:

"Data from the National Crime Agency'sHuman Trafficking Centre last year put the number of slavery victims in the UK at 2,744.

“英国国家犯罪局人口贩卖中心去年统计的遭到奴役的人数是2744人”。

In a 2012 report, Russia Today quoted Paul Donahoe, press officer at the British charity Anti-Slavery Internationalas saying that teenagers from rural Vietnam,many orphans, are often lured to the U.K. with false promises of jobs inrestaurants only to be forced to work in illegal Cannabis farms.

2012年,《今日俄罗斯》援引英国国际反奴隶慈善组织新闻官员Paul Donahoe的话发布了一篇报道,他说来自越南农村地区的青少年和很多孤儿经常受可到餐厅工作的承诺诱惑来到了英国,结果却被迫成为大麻农场上的非法劳动力。

"He continued that women from Nigeria, many of whom have sworn to theirtraffickers not to run away or go to the authorities, arrive in the UK andare forced to work in prostitution.

“他继续说,很多来到英国却被迫卖淫的尼日利亚妇女向人贩子发誓她们不会逃跑也不会向有关当局报告这件事”。

"'They never pay off their debt andare forced to keep working until they are no longer useful,' he explained."

他解释说,“她们永远还不清债务,她们被迫持续劳动直到没有利用价值”。
