Kuala Lumpur: The inclusion of whipping and imprisonment of more than 20 years for members of human trafficking and migrant smuggling syndicates are among the proposals for amendment to the Anti-Trafficking in Persons and Anti-Smuggling of Migrants Act (Atipsom) 2007.
Atipsom 2007 currently carries a jail sentence of 15 years, and a fine, or both, upon conviction.
