Tráfico de seres humanos, Crimes graves, Jurisprudência em matéria penal, Criminalidade transnacional, Soluções jurisprudenciaisResumo
O fenómeno do tráfico de seres humanos assumiu outra dimensão, desde o desenvolvimento de um novo ambiente criminoso no Sudeste da Europa decorrente de múltiplas crises simultâneas. O presente artigo centra-se nas questões específicas levantadas por este fenómeno no Sudeste da Europa em meio à pandemia, à guerra, à imigração ilegal e às crises financeiras. Estas circunstâncias são analisadas através de uma abordagem jurisprudencial, sob a apresentação conceptual e investigação da situação de facto tal como existe na prática. A actividade de investigação foi melhorada através da análise de soluções jurisprudenciais em matéria penal, a partir de processos criminais relevantes em que os tribunais proferiram decisões judiciais antes e durante as crises concomitantes relevantes. Os resultados concluíram que os órgãos responsáveis pela aplicação da lei devem analisar o fenómeno neste contexto e envidar esforços significativos no sentido de prevenir e combater esta actividade criminosa através de instrumentos jurídicos recolhidos a partir de ferramentas judiciais.
