In this article, the digital media-trafficking link is disclosed, with the multi-faceted legal problems and complexities it gives rise to in the digital age. The work of the author is to put into light the ways that traffickers use digital platforms to recruit, exploit and control their victims who are often anonymous and cross international borders. Digital media in the mix of enforcing and legalizing issues makes the scenario more complex, hence it requires existing legal frameworks to be evolved by creating relevant new legislation for current complexities. The research shows how the international protocols including the Palermo Protocol are key while the milestone national legislation of some countries such as the United States, Sweden, and the Philippines have also taken a major step.
