Police at Nsangi Police Division have rescued 47 victims of alleged human trafficking.
The victims who were rescued on Wednesday, 3rd December, 2025 are mostly aged between 16 and 30, and were reportedly trafficked from various upcountry districts, including Mbarara, Bushenyi, Kabale, Ntungamo, Mityana, and the Busoga region.
According to Rachael Kawala, the Kampala Metropolitan Plice Spokesperson, the victims were allegedly lured under the pretense of being offered online job opportunities after undergoing financial literacy training.
The successful rescue operation followed intelligence gathered from one of the victims, who had previously escaped from the camp.
Kawala says the company responsible for recruiting the victims is Dream Visionaries, operating under Alliance in Motion Global. Efforts to arrest the company’s director are currently underway.
“Our investigations have revealed that the company exploits vulnerable youth, charging a registration fee of 150,000/- (one hundred fifty thousand shillings),” she says.
However, upon arrival, the victims are confined to small rooms and deprived of communication, as their phones are confiscated for six days. After this period, each victim is individually contacted and given a phone to call their family, demanding 1.5 million shillings (one million five hundred thousand shillings) as “start-up capital.”
The victims are currently in the care of Nsangi Police Division for further management and assistance.
