- Title
Prosecution of Victims of Trafficking.
- Abstract
Had those decisions been available to the prosecution the prosecution would have been discontinued, or if not it could have been successfully challenged as an abuse of process. Hoshi acknowledged, however, that there was no hard, binding international law requiring a causation-based defence, and that both the CoE Convention Against Trafficking and the EU Trafficking Directive contained requirements that were compulsion-based or at best ambiguous.
