Operation Pentameter 2 reaches the South West. Only one claim of human trafficking so far . Previous BBC reports have suggested that brothrls have spread to rural areas in the UK. The UK Human Trafficking Centre and Project Poppy have been set up to respond.
Pentameter 2 started on 3rd October 2007. It is a victim-focussed project, linked to a G6 initiative led by the UK and Poland.
