But some media reports elaborate most of the immigrants engaging the crime of Maldives. The major crime like, prostitution, theft, drug dealing, trade violate and child abuse, the most recent

Maldives is pulling record numbers of legal and illegal immigrants to fill the low-status, low-paying, or hard jobs that Maldivian natives reject.

The number of Bangladeshis in this country is around 50,000 now and one-third of them are either working or staying there illegally. In addition, the information session which was conducted by immigration the past 03 years of foreign labours statistics  70'000 Illegal immigration has impact on many political, economical, social and ethical issues.

In the Maldives, larger proportion of low-skilled labours work mostly in construction industry. But other industries like agriculture, manufacturing, foreigners such a laboured force is not very common. Most of the maldivian foriners change their leagal condition to illegal for various reasons. Instead of low wages, most of the employers hold their salaries for long duration and also, fraud recritment also help to hide their identities. According to maldivian media reports, the numbers of human trafficing activities has been introduces in maldives very recently, and the most of the victims are illegal immigrants. “In addition to Bangladeshis and Indians, some migrants from Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Nepal reportedly experienced recruitment fraud before arriving in the Maldives,”

The Maldives did not provide access to services such as shelter, counseling, medical care, or legal aid to foreign or Maldivian victims of trafficking. The government did not conduct any anti-trafficking or educational campaigns in the Maldives, nor did it take any measures to reduce demand for forced labour within the country.”
