Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are

C Abduction of an orphaned child

Human trafficking is a basket of crimes. It involves crimes like kidnapping, labour and sexual assault. The trafficked children are forced to beg on the streets, sell drugs and are subjected to violence. Many are forced into becoming bonded labourers or Vetti. A 10 year old performing the chores in their own house would not be an example of child trafficking. On the other hand a 10 year who is forced to beg on the streets could have been forced into it. Abduction refers to kidnapping and is a crime. Adoption means that the orphan is legally a part of the family who adopted them.
