MS (Pakistan) v Secretary of State for the Home Department, the first human trafficking case related to non-removal to reach the UK Supreme Court, clarifies the effects of the interplay between the Council of Europe Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings (ECAT) and the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The decision expands the right to remain for trafficked persons under Article 4 ECHR with reference to the obligation to investigate trafficking under the ECAT. Trafficked persons cannot be removed while their trafficking experience is being investigated and tribunals have the power to decide whether a person was trafficked. Thus, MS (Pakistan) strengthens the influence of international law, and the role of courts and tribunals. This note argues that, based on MS (Pakistan), other obligations under the ECAT, besides the obligation to investigate trafficking, may in the future be raised in trafficked persons’ appeals against removal.

根据 ECHR 和 ECAT 第 4 条扩大继续作为被贩运者的权利

MS（巴基斯坦） 诉内政部国务卿一案，这是第一个与不驱逐相关的人口贩运案件到达英国最高法院，澄清了欧洲委员会打击人口贩运行动公约之间的相互作用的影响（ ECAT) 和欧洲人权公约 (ECHR)。该决定扩大了根据欧洲人权法院第 4 条被贩运者的居留权，并参照 ECAT 规定的调查贩运人口的义务。被贩卖者在被贩卖的经历正在接受调查期间不能被移除，法庭有权决定一个人是否被贩卖。因此，  MS（巴基斯坦） 加强国际法的影响以及法院和法庭的作用。本说明认为，根据 MS (Pakistan)，除了调查贩运的义务之外，ECAT 规定的其他义务将来可能会在被贩运者反对驱逐的上诉中提出。
