LONDON - Campaigners are claiming a "landmark victory" after a court ruled that the UK National Crime Agency’s (NCA) refusal to investigate forced labour links to cotton imported from China was unlawful.
Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) and the World Uyghur Congress (WUC) said the Court of Appeal decsion could lead to brands and retailers facing charges under the Proceeds of Crime Act if they are found to be importing goods made with forced labour.
