Manama, Ali Ahmed Al Derazi, President of the National Institution for Human Rights (NIHR), commended Bahrain's extensive efforts in combating human trafficking across legislative, regulatory, administrative, and judicial levels. These measures are underpinned by reform endeavours of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and the significant initiatives led by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, along with relevant state ministries and agencies addressing this cross-border crime, he said. Al Derazi noted that Bahrain's success in maintaining Tier 1 status in the US State Department's report on combating human trafficking for the seventh consecutive year reflects the effectiveness of Bahrain's strategies and policies. This recognition is an international acknowledgment of Bahrain's progress, marked by comprehensive legislative development, enhanced institutional capacity, and active international and regional cooperation to combat human trafficking, he added. He emphasised that these integrated efforts contribute to enhancing Bahrain's positive image and demonstrate its long-term commitment to human rights and the implementation of international law. Al Derazi said achieving Tier 1 status reinforces Bahrain's position as an effective and responsible partner in the international community's fight against transnational crimes such as human trafficking. Al Derazi reiterated NIHR's commitment to collaborating with all concerned parties to combat human trafficking, ensuring the optimal application of human rights. Source: Bahrain News Agency
