(Patria) - In an operation during the international week of combating human trafficking in Europe and beyond, 219 suspects were arrested, reported the German news agency (dpa).
The European police organization (Europol) announced today that it identified almost 1,400 victims, including 153 children, reports Jutarnji list.
The operation targeted organized groups that forced people into sexual acts, crime, and begging. A total of 276 new investigations were launched.

In Romania, a suspect was also arrested for forcing children into begging and prostitution.
