John Mulimba Yokana , Minister of State for Foreign Affairs has confirmed that over 290 Ugandans are stranded in India, Egypt and Myanmar, after being trafficked out of the country and there are fears that some of the victims have been recruited into rebel activities.
The traffickers recruit desperate Ugandans via fictitious Websites. Most victims respond to an online advertisement for highly paying jobs in Thailand and Malaysia, and when they embark on the journeys either by air or by boats via the ports of Mombasa.
