Speaking under the interactive dialogue with the UN rapporteur on human trafficking, as part of the 50th session of the UNHRC, Breika pointed to the responsibility of Algeria in the violations, abuses and illicit trafficking in which the polisario is engaged.
In this respect, he denounced the devolution of the prerogatives of management of the camps of Tindouf to the separatist military elements, which "prevents the establishment of any human rights framework capable of monitoring and accounting for trafficking in human beings in the camps."
He noted, in this sense, that human trafficking is one of the lucrative activities for separatist militias who use, without scruples, these camps as a business. "The polisario camps are a sad example of the exploitation of human beings by armed separatist militias."
Breika noted that "the polisario leadership still treats a large group of dark-skinned people as slaves who are sold and bought across the Sahel-Saharan region, especially women and children, who face the worst forms of abuse, including rape, forced labor, and recruitment of minors into terrorist groups, criminal gangs, and human trafficking networks."
"One of the most heinous forms of human trafficking in the Polisario camps is the deportation of hundreds of children every year to Europe," said Breika, who drew attention to the situation of children in Tindouf, who are sent to European countries with the false motive of spending the summer vacations, before they are given, in exchange for money, to European families, in order to adopt them in an environment that is foreign to them, far from their mothers despite their young age, which causes human tragedies.
