The Claimant claims the Defendant breached the Claimant’s rights under Article 4 ECHR, comprising the Defendant’s positive obligations to identify and protect victims of trafficking.
The basis of challenge is that the Defendant failed:
i) to report to the police that the Claimant had been trafficked (‘police reporting issue’);
ii) to identify the Claimant as a victim of trafficking when she claimed asylum in 2010 (‘2010 challenge’);
iii) to comply with entry clearance procedures at the time of the Claimant’s application for a visa to travel to the United Kingdom (‘2008 challenge’).
The relief sought by the Claimant includes a declaration, and damages.
