IDENTIFYING MARKS OF A VICTIM

Posted by Mrs. Obioma Agoziem on 5 May 2015
It is just one day left to our great workshop.  We shall be looking at the identifying mark of a victim. How do I identify or determine a victim when I see one.  Look at the things you must note:* Are you being cajoled, lured  or coerced for a better life or pay somewhere?* Did someone take away your identity card or passport?* Were you deceived about the nature of job, location or employer?* Are you working excessive days or hours, performing hazardous work?* Are you isolated, confined or under surveillance?* Is someone forcing you to work or engage in criminal activities or have sex against your will?* Is someone threatening to hurt you or your family?* Is someone forcing you to take oaths and incantations?* Are you constantly beaten at the slightest provocation?* Are you sexualy harrassed by a close family member or friend?If your answers are yes for you or someone else, that person be a victim.  You can contact the Police or Centre for Correction and Human Development Hotline - 08184515808
