In a significant development, 46-year-old Reyna Urbina from Orange Walk, Belize, has been arrested and charged with multiple counts of human trafficking. The Anti-Trafficking in Persons Police Unit took action on November 11, 2025, accusing Urbina of both labor and sex trafficking. Authorities claim she exploited two adult women from Central America for forced labor and sexual purposes. Urbina has been released on a $10,000 bail under stringent conditions, including the surrender of her travel documents, mandatory bi-weekly police check-ins, and a prohibition on contacting any witnesses. The case is scheduled for a court hearing on January 16, 2026. This arrest was the culmination of a collaborative effort involving the Belize Police Department, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, Immigration, Human Services, INTERPOL Belize, and several non-governmental organizations. Officials emphasize that this case highlights Belize’s dedication to safeguarding victims and holding traffickers accountable.
