LA PAZ, BOLIVIA, March 17 – The Bolivian daily Cambio exposed a Bolivian child trafficking and slavery racket in Argentina by a ring operating in Rosario, the largest city in Santa Fe province, about 300 km from Buenos Aires.

The paper calls the trade a crime against humanity, violatory of every liberty and dignity as the national and transborder rings profit from exploiting individuals like mere “objects”.

Bolivian Consul in Rosario, William Eloy Medrano told the paper about child slavery in farms, brick factories and sweat shops in Santa Fe and Buenos Aires among other places.
