CHR urges prosecution of child sellers
The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) has demanded that authorities swiftly prosecute child sellers, including those using internet platforms.
The CHR condemns persistent child selling in the Philippines; it is a serious trafficking offense and a clear violation of the law.
The human department urges the government to regulate online platforms, strengthen investigations, and swiftly bring child trafficking offenders to justice.
Advocates urge the Philippine government to uphold its UNCRC commitment by preventing the kidnapping, sale, and trafficking of children nationwide.
The report also advises people and couples who want to adopt a child to adhere to the law and morals.
