Between 2014 and 2017, majority of the victims of trafficking in persons in Algeria were from Niger. This constituted 32 percent of the total number of people who had suffered due to human exploitation. These types of crimes are particularly related to the migration routes through the Sahara Desert, which are dominated by smugglers.
