suffering or bodily harm. In the context of coercive control, physical abuse is to control the
victim.The dynamics of physical abuse in a relationship are often complex. Physical violence
can be the culmination of other abusive behavior, such as threats, intimidation, and
restriction of victim self-determination through isolation, manipulation and other limitations of
personal freedom.It can also include inflicting physical injury onto other targets, such as
children or pets, in order to cause emotional harm to the victim.
Emotional abuse is a pattern of behavior that threatens, intimidates, dehumanizes or
systematically undermines self-worth.

SEXUAL ABUSES IN KINDS
~RAPE~
Rape is a type of sexual assault usually
involving sexual intercourse or other
forms of sexual penetration carried out
against a person without that person's
consent. The act may be carried out by
physical force, coercion, abuse of
authority, or against a person who is
incapable of giving valid consent, such as
one who is unconscious, incapacitated,
has an intellectual disability or is below
the legal age of consent.
According to the National Crime Records
Bureau (NCRB) 2013 annual report, 24,923
rape cases were reported across India in
2012. Out of these, 24,470 were committed
by someone known to the victim (98% of
the cases). India has been characterised
as one of the "countries with the lowest
per capita rates of rape"
~SEXUAL ASSAULT WITHIN MARRIAGE~
It is a form of domestic violence and sexual abuse.
Although, historically, sexual intercourse within marriage
was regarded as a right of spouses, engaging in the act
without the spouse's consent is now widely recognized
by law and society as a wrong and as a crime.
Marital rape (or spousal rape) is the act of sexual intercourse
with one's spouse without the spouse's consent. It is a form
of domestic violence and sexual abuse. Although,
historically, sexual intercourse within marriage was regarded
as a right of spouses, engaging in the act without the
spouse's consent is now widely recognized by law and
society as a wrong and as a crime. It is recognized as rape
by many societies around the world, repudiated by
international conventions, and increasingly criminalized.
The issues of sexual and domestic violence within marriage
and the family unit, and more specifically, the issue of
violence against women, have come to growing international
attention from the second half of the 20th century. Still, in
many countries, marital rape either remains outside the
criminal law, or is illegal but widely tolerated. Laws are rarely
being enforced, due to factors ranging from reluctance of
authorities to pursue the crime, to lack of public knowledge
that sexual intercourse in marriage without consent is
illegal.

~PROSTITUTION AND TRAFFICKING~
Prostitution is the business or practice of
engaging in sexual activity in exchange
for payment. Prostitution is sometimes
described as sexual services, commercial
sex or, colloquially, hooking. Prostitution
occurs in a variety of forms.

*CANADA * NETHERLANDS
Where does INDIA stand ?
Prostitution itself isn't unlawful in our nation, yet
requesting and open prostitution are illicit.
Owning a house of ill-repute is additionally
illegal, in any case, as spots like GB Road and
Kamathipura demonstrate, these laws are
infrequently implemented.
~TRAFFICKING~
Human trafficking is the exchange of
people with the end goal of constrained
work, sexual bondage, or business sexual
misuse for the trafficker or others.
CHILD HARVESTING :
Trafficking of children involves the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, or receipt of children for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation of children can take many forms, including forcing a child into prostitution or other forms of sexual activity or child pornography. Child exploitation may also involve forced labour or services, slavery or practices similar to slavery, servitude, the removal of organs, illicit international adoption, trafficking for early marriage, recruitment as child soldiers, for use in begging or as athletes (such as child camel jockeys or football players.
IOM statistics indicate that a significant minority of trafficked persons it assisted in 2011 were less than 18 years of age, which is roughly consistent with estimates from previous years. It was reported in 2010 that Thailand and Brazil were considered to have the worst child sex trafficking records.
Traffickers in children may take advantage of the parents' extreme poverty. Parents may sell children to traffickers in order to pay off debts or gain income, or they may be deceived concerning the prospects of training and a better life for their children. They may sell their children into labor, sex trafficking, or illegal adoptions.
The adoption process, legal and illegal, when abused can sometimes result in cases of trafficking of babies and pregnant women from developing countries to the West.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child at Article 34, states, "States Parties undertake to protect the child from all forms of sexual exploitation and sexual abuse".In the European Union, commercial sexual exploitation of children is subject to a directive – Directive 2011/92/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 2011 on combating the sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children and child pornography.
The Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption (or Hague Adoption Convention) is an international convention dealing with international adoption, that aims at preventing child laundering, child trafficking, and other abuses related to international adoption.
The Optional Protocol on the Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict seeks to prevent forceful recruitment (e.g. by guerrilla forces) of children for use in armed conflicts.
~SEX TRAFFICKING~
Warning of Prostitution and Human trafficking in South Korea for G.I. by United States Forces Korea.
The International Labor Organization claims that sex trafficking affects 4.5 million people worldwide. Most victims find themselves in coercive or abusive situations from which escape is both difficult and dangerous.
Trafficking for sexual exploitation was formerly thought of as the organized movement of people, usually women, between countries and within countries for sex work with the use of physical coercion, deception and bondage through forced debt. However, the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (US), does not require movement for the offence. The issue becomes contentious when the element of coercion is removed from the definition to incorporate facilitation of consensual involvement in prostitution. For example, in the United Kingdom, the Sexual Offences Act 2003incorporated trafficking for sexual exploitation but did not require those committing the offence to use coercion, deception or force, so that it also includes any person who enters the UK to carry out sex work with consent as having been "trafficked." In addition, any minor involved in a commercial sex act in the US while under the age of 18 qualifies as a trafficking victim, even if no force, fraud or coercion is involved, under the definition of "Severe Forms of Trafficking in Persons" in the US Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000.
Sexual trafficking includes coercing a migrant into a sexual act as a condition of allowing or arranging the migration. Sexual trafficking uses physical or sexual coercion, deception, abuse of power and bondage incurred through forced debt. Trafficked women and children, for instance, are often promised work in the domestic or service industry, but instead are sometimes taken to brothels where they are required to undertake sex work, while their passports and other identification papers are confiscated. They may be beaten or locked up and promised their freedom only after earning – through prostitution – their purchase price, as well as their travel and visa costs.
~FORCED MARRIAGE~
A forced marriage is a marriage where one or both participants are married
without their freely given consent. Servile marriage is defined as a marriage
involving a person being sold, transferred or inherited into that marriage
. According to ECPAT, "Child trafficking for forced marriage is simply another
manifestation of trafficking and is not restricted to particular nationalities or
countries".
A forced marriage qualifies as a form of human trafficking in certain
situations. If a woman is sent abroad, forced into the marriage and then
repeatedly compelled to engage in sexual conduct with her new
husband, then her experience is that of sex trafficking. If the bride is
treated as a domestic servant by her new husband and/or his family,
then this is a form of labor trafficking.
~LABOUR TRAFFICKING~
Labour trafficking is the movement of persons for the purpose of
forced labor and services.It may involve bonded labor, involuntary servitude,
domestic servitude, and child labor. Labor trafficking happens most often within
the domain of domestic work, agriculture, construction, manufacturing and
entertainment; and migrant workers and indigenous people are especially at risk
of becoming victims. People smuggling operations are also known to traffic
people for the exploitation of their labour, for example, as transporters.
~PORNOGRAPHY~
media, including books, magazines, postcards, photos,
design, drawing, painting, movement, sound account,
telephone calls, composing, film, video, and computer
games.
~ SEXUAL HARRASMENT AT
WORKPLACE~
Workplace harassment is all too common. As victims are often unsure of what qualifies as harassment and what to do when they're being harassed, it often goes unreported and continues to be an issue. Workplace harassment can ruin a great job and turn a company into a toxic and unproductive environment.
The "Me Too" movement has enhanced awareness of sexual harassment and many employers have reexamined and strengthened their policies and procedures. Victims have felt more comfortable reporting incidences of harassment.
