APOSTOLIC
LETTER
ISSUED MOTU
PROPRIO
OF
THE SUPREME
PONTIFF
FRANCIS
ON
THE
JURISDICTION OF JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES OF VATICAN
CIry
STATE
IN
CRIMINAL
MATTERS
ln
our times,
the
common
good
is increasingly
threatened
by
transnational
organized
crime, the
improper
use
of
the markets
and of
the economy,
as well
as by terrorisrn.
It is
therefore
necessary

adequate
legal
instruments

prevent
and
counter
criminal
activities,
by
promoting
internationaljudicial
cooperation
on criminal
matters.
ln
ratifying
numerous
international
conventions
in these
areas,
and
acting also
on behalf
of
Vatican
City State,
the
Holy
See
has
constantly
maintained
that
such
agreements
are
effective
means
to
prevent
criminal
activities
that
threaten
human
dignity,
the
common
good
and
peace.
With
a
view
to renewing
the
Apostolic
See's commitment
to
cooperate to
these
ends, by means
of
this
Apostolic
Letter issued
Motu
Proprio,l
establish
that:
1. The
competent
Judicial Authorities
of Vatican
City State

MESSAGE OF
HIS
HOLINESS
POPE FRANCIS
FOR
THE
CELEBRATION
OF
THE
WORLD
DAY OF PEACE
1
JANUARY2Ol5
NO LONGER SLAVES,
BUT BROTHERS AND SISTERS
1. At
the beginning of this
New Year,
which
we
welcome as God's
gracious
gift
to all humanity, I
offer
heartfelt
wishes of
peace
to every man and
wornan,
to
all
the world's
peoples
and nations,
to
heads
of state and
government,
and to
religious
leaders. ln
doing
so,
I
pray
for
an end to
wars,
conflicts
and the
great
suffering
caused by human agency, by
epidemics
past
and
present,
and by
the devastation
wrought
by natural
disasters.
I
pray especially that, on
the
basis of our common
calling to cooperate with
God and all
people
of
good
will for
the advancement
of harmony and
peace
in
the world, we may
resist the
temptation to
act
in a manner
unworthy
of our
humanity.
ln
my Messaqe
for
Peace
last
year,
I
spoke of
"the
desire for
a full life... which includes
a longing
for fraternity
which draws us to fellowship
with
others and
enables
us
to
see them not
as
enemies
or
rivals,
but
as brothers
and sisters to
be accepted
and
embraced".[ll
Since
we are
by nature
relational
beings,
meant to
find fulfilment
through
interpersonal
relationships
inspired
by.iustice
and love,
it
is
fundamental
for our
human development
that our
dignity,
freedom
and
autonomy be
acknowledged and respected. Tragically, the growing scourge
of
man's exploitation by man
gravely
damages
the life
of communion
and
our calling to
forge
interpersonal
relations
marked
by
respect,
justice
and love.
This abominable
phenomenon,
which leads
to
contempt
for
the
fundamental
rights of others
and
to
the suppression
of their treedom
and
dignity,
takes
many
forms.
lwould
like
briefly
to
consider these,
so that, in
the
tight
of
God's
word,
we
can
consider au
men and women
"no
longer
slaves, but
brothers and
sister{.
Listening
to God's
plan

humanity

2.The
theme
I have chosen
for
this
yeads
me$sage
is drawn
from
Saint Paul's
letter
to
Philemon,
in
which
the
Apostle asks
his co-worker
to
welcome Onesirnus,
formerly Philemon's slave, now
a
Christian
and, therefore, according
to
Paul,
worthy of being considered
a brather.
The
Apostle of
the
Gentiles
writes:
"Perhaps
this
is why he was
parted
from
you
for a
while, that
you
might have
him
back
for ever,
no longer
as
a slave
but more
than
a
slave,
as
a
beloved brothed
(w.
15-16).
Onesimus
became Philemon's brotherwhen
he became a Christian.
Conversion to
Christ, the
beginning
of a
life lived Chnbtian diseipleship,
thus
constitutes
a new
birth
(d.
2 CorS:17;
1 Pet
1:3)
which
generates
fratemity
as
the fundamental
bond of
family
life and
the basis
of
life in
society.
ln
the
Book
of
Genesis
(d.
1:27-28), we
read that
God
made man male and
female, and
blessed
them so that
they could
increase
and multiply.
He made Adarn
and
Eve
parents
who, in
response
to God's
cornmand
to be
fruitful and rnultiply,
brought about the
first fratemity,
that
of
Cain
and
Abel.
Cain
and Abel were brothers
beffiuse
they came
forth from the
same
womb. Consequently
they
had the same origin,
nature and dignity
as their
parents,
who
were created in the image and
likeness
of
God.
Butfraternifyalso
embraces
variety
and
differences
between brothers and sisterc,
even though
they are
linked
by birth
and are of the same
nature and dignity. As brothers
and
sisters,
therefore,
all
people
are
in relation with
others,
from whom
they
differ,
but
with whorn
they
share
the
same
origin,
nafure
and dignity-
tn
this way,
fratemity constitutes the
nefuvork of relations essential
for
the building of the hurnan
family
created
by God.
Tragically, between
the
first
creation
recounted in the Book
of
Genesis and
the new
birth
in
Christ
whereby
believers become brothers and sisters
of
the *first-bom amqng many
brethren"
lRom
8:29),
there
is
the negative reality of sin,
which
often disrupts
human fraternity and constantly
disfigures the beauty
and nobility of
our being
brothers and sisfers
in
the
one human
family.
It
was
not
only
that
Cain
could not stand
Abel; he killed him
out
of envy and,
in so
doing,
committed the
first
frakicide.
"Cain's
murder
of
Abel bears
tragic
witness to his
radical rejection of
their vocation
to
be brothers.
Their story
(cf.
Gen4:1-16)
brings out the difficult task
to which
all
men
and women
are
called,
to
live a$ one,
each taking care
of the
othef"pl
This
was also the case
with
Noah
and
his children
(cf.
Gen 9:18-27\. Harn's
disrespect for his
father
Noah drove Noah
to
curse his insolent son and
to
bless the others, those
who
honoured
him. This created
an
inequality between brothers
bom of
the
sarne
womb.
ln the account of the origins
of
the
human
family,
the
sin
of estrangement
from
God,
from
the
father figure and from
the brother,
becornes
an
expression
of the refusal of communion.
lt
gives
rise
to
a
culture of
enslavement
(cf"
Geng:25-27),
with all
its
consequences
extending
from
generation to
generation: rejection
of others,
their
mistreatrnent,
violations
of
their
dignity and
fundarnentat
rights,
and
institutionalized
inequality.
Hence,
the
need for
constant
conversion
to the
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
15/40
Covenant, fulfilled by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross,
in
the
confidence that'lvhere sin
increased,
grace
abounded
all
the more... through Jesus Christ"
(Rom
5:20-21).
Christ,
the beloved
Son
(cf.
Mt3:17),
came to
reveal
the
Father's
love
for
humanity. Whoever hears the
Gospel and responds
to the
call to conversion becomes Jesus'
"brother,
sister
and
mothef'
{Mt
12:5O),
and
thus
an
adopted
son
of
his Father
(cf.
Eph 1:5).
One does not become a Christian, a child of
the
Father and a brother
or
sister in Christ, as the
result
of an authoritative divine decree,
without the exercise of
personalfreedom:
in
a
word,
without
being freely
c,onverted
to Christ.
Becoming a child of God
is necessarily linked
to
conversion:
"Repent,
and be baptized, every one of
you,
in the name of Jesus
Christ
for
the
forgiveness
of
your
sins; and
you
shall
receive the
gift
of
the
Holy Spirit'
(Acfs
2:38). All those
who
responded
in faith
and
with
their
lives to Peter's
preaching
entered
into
the
fraternity
of the
first
Christian
community
(d.
1 Pet2:17;
Acts 1:15-16,
6:3,
15:23):
Jews and Greeks, slaves and free
(cf.
1
Cor12:13;
Gal3:28).
Differing
origins and socialstatus
did not diminish anyone's dignity
or
exclude anyone
from
belonging to the
People of
God.
The
Christian community
is
thus
a
place
of
communion lived
in
the
love shared among brothers and sisters
(cf. Rom 12:10;
1 Thess
4:9;
Heb
13.1; 1 Pet
1:22:
2 Pet 1:7).
AII
of
this shows
how
the
Good
News
of Jesus
Christ,
in whom
God
makes
"all
things
new"
(Reu
21:5),[3.]
is
also
capable
of
redeeming
human relationships, including
those
between slaves and
masters,
by shedding light on what both have in common: adoptive sonship and the bond
of
brotherhood
in
Christ.
Jesus
himself said to
his
disciples:
"No
longer
do
I
call
you

(Jn

The many faces of slavery
yesterday
and today
3.
From
time
immemorial,
different societies
have known the
phenomenon
of
man's
subjugation by
man.
There
have been
periods
of
human
history
in which
the
institution
of
slavery
was
generally
accepted and
regulated
by
law. This legislation dictated who
was
born free
and who was
bom
into
slavery, as
well
as
the
conditions whereby
a freeborn
person
could
lose his
or
her
freedom
or
regain
it. ln other
words,
the
law itself
admitted
that some
people
were able or required to be
c.onsidered
the
property
of
other
people,
at their
free
disposition.
A slave could be bought and
sold, given away or acquired, as
if
he
or
she
were
a
commercial product.
Today, as the
result
of a
growth
in our awareness, slavery,
seen as a crime
against humanity,[4]
has
been
formally abolished
throughout the
world. The
right
of each
person
not to be
kept in
a
state of slavery
or servitude
has been
recognized
in international law
as
inviolable.
Yet, even though
the international community
has adopted
numerous
agreements aimed at
ending
slavery in all
its forms, and
has launched
various
strategies
to combat
this
phenomenon,
millions
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
16/40
of
people
today
-
children,
women
and
men of all ages
-
are
deprived of
freedom
and are forced
to
live
in
conditions akin to slavery.
I
think of the
many
men and
women
labourers, including minors,
subjugated
in
different
sectors,
whether formally
or
informally,
in
domestic
or agricultura workplaces,
or in the manufacturing
or
mining induetry;
whether in countries where labour regulations failto
comply
with international
norms and minimum standards, or,
equally
illegally, in countries
which
lack legal protection
for
workeps'rights.
1
think also
of
the
living
conditions
of
many
migrants
who, in
their dramatic odyssey,
experience
hunger, are
deprived of
freedom, robbed
of their
possessions,
or undergo
physical
and sexual
abuse.
ln
a
particular
way,
I
think
of
those
among them who,
upon
arriving
at
their
destination
after
a
grqelling
journey
mqrked
by
fear
and
insecurity,
are detained in at
times
inhumane
conditions. I
think
qf
those
among
them,
who for
different social,
political
and economic reasons,
are forced to
live
clandestinely.
My
thoughts
also tum to those who, in
order to
remain within
the law, agree
to
disgraceful living and working conditions, especially
in
those
cases where
the
laws of
a
nation
create or
permit
a structural
dependency of migrant workers
on
their
employers, as, for
example,
when the
legality of their
residency is made
dependent
on their labour
contract. Yes,
I
am thinking
of
"slave
labour''.
I think also
of
persons
forced
into
prostitution,
many
of
whom
are
minors,
as
well
as male
and
female
sex
slaves.
I
think
of
women
forced into marriage,
those sold
for
arranged
maniages
and
those bequeathed to
relatives
of
their
deceased
husbands, without any right
to
give
or
withhold
their consent.
Nor
can
I failto
think
of
all
those
persons,
minors
and
adults
alike,who
are made
objects
of
traffickingfor the sale
of organs, for recruitment
as
saldiers,tor
begging, for
illegal
activities such
as the
production
and
sale
of
narcotics,
or
for
disguised
forms
of cross-border
adoption.
Finally, I
think of all
those
kidnapped
and held captive
by
terrorist
groups,
subjected to their
purposes
as combatants, or, above
all
in the case
of
young girls
and women, to
be used as sex
slaves.
Many
of these disappear, while others
are sold several times over,
tortured,
mutilated
or
killed.
Some deeper
causes
of
slavery
4. Today, as in
the
past,
slavery
is
rooted
in
a notion of
the
human
person
which
allows him
or her
to
be
treated as
an
object. whenever sin comjpts the
human
heart
and
distances
us
from our
Creator and
our
neighbours,
the
latter are
no longer regarded as beings of equal
dignity,
as
brothers
or
sisters sharing a
common humanity, but
rather
as objects. Whether
by coercion or
deception, or by
physical
or
psychological
duress,
human
persons
created in the
image
and
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
17/40
likeness
of
God
are
deprived of their
freedom,
sold and
reduced
to
being
the
property
of others.
They
are treated as
means
to
an end.
Alongslde
this deeper
cause
-
the
rejectlon
of
another
person's
humanity
-
there
are
other c€uses
which help
to
explain contemporary forms of slavery. Among
these,
I
think
in
the
first
place
of
Wver$,
underdevelopment and
exclusion,
espeeially
when
combined
with
a lack
of
aceess
fo
educatian or
scarce,
even
non-existetnt,
employment
oppoftunities. Not infrequently, the
victims
of
human
traf$cking
and slavery
are
people
who look
for
a
way
out of a situation of
extreme
poverty;
taken
in
by false
promises
of
employment, they
often
end
up in
the hands of criminal networks
which organize human
trafficking.
These
networks are
skilled
in
using modem rneans
of
communication
as
a way
of
luring
young
men and women in
various
parts
of
the world.
Another
rause
of slavery is camtptian
on
the
part
of
people
willing
to
do anything
for
financial
gain.
$lave
labour and human trafficking
ofren require the
complicity of
intermediaries, be they law
enforcement
personnel,
state officials, or civil and
military institutions.
"This
occLlrs when
money,
and not
the
human person,
is
at the centre
of
an economic system. Yes,
the
person, made
in
the
image
of God and charged with
dominion
over all creation, must be at
the
centre
of every social
or
economic
system.
When
the
person
is replaced
by
mammon,
a subversion
of
values
occurs'.ff
Further
causes of
slavery
include
armed
conflicts, violence,
criminal aativity and tenarism.
Many
people
are kidnapped
in order
to
be
sold, enlisted
as
combatants,
or sexually exploited,
while
others
are
forced
to
emigrate, leaving
everything behind: their
cot-rntry,
home,
property,
and
even
mernbers
of
their family"
They are
driven to seek an alternative
to these tenible
conditions even
at
the risk
of
their
personal
dignity and
their very lives; they risk
being
drawn
into
that vicious
circle
which
makes
them
prey
to
misery,
comtption
and
their
baneful oonsequences.
A shared
commitment
to
ending
slavery
5.
Often, when considering
the reality of human
trafficking, illegal
trafficking of migrants
and
other
acknowledged
or unacknowledged forms
of slavery, one has
the
impression
that they
occur within
a
context of
general
indifference.
Sadly, this is largely true. Yet
lwould
like to mention
the
enormous and
often silent
efforts
which
have been made
for
many
years
by
religious
congregations, especially
women's
congregations, to
provide
support to
victims. These
institutes
work in very
difficult situations, dominated
at times by
violence,
as
they work to break the
invisible chains binding
victirns to
traffickers
and
exploiters-
Those
chains are made up of a series of links, each composed of clever
psyehological ploys
which
make
the
victims
dependent on their exploiters.
This is
accomplished by blackmailand
threats
made
against
them
and their
loved
ones,
but also by concrete acts such as
the confiscation
of
their
identity
documents
and
physical
violence. The
activity
of
religious congregations
is
carried
out
in
three
main
areas:
in offering
assistance
to victims, in working for
their
psychological
and
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
18/40
educational
rehabilitation,
and in
efforts
to
reintegrate them into the society where they live
or
from
which they have come.
This immense task, which calls for @urager
patience
and
perseverance,
deserves the
appreciation
of
the whole
Church and society.
Yet,
of
itself, it is not
sufficient
to
end
the
scourge of
the exploitation of
human
persons.
There
is
also
need
for
a
threefold
commitment on the
institutional level:
to
prevention,
to victim
protection and to
the
Iegal prosecution of perpetrators.
Moreover, since criminal organizations employ
global
networks to achieve their
goals,
efforts
to
eliminate
this
phenomenon
also demand a common and,
indeed,
a
global
effort on
the
part
of
various sectors of society.
Sfafes
must ensure
that their own legislation truly
respects
the
dignity of the human
person
in the
areas
of
migration,
employment, adoption,
the movement of
businesses offshore
and
the sale
of
items
produced
by slave
labour. There is
a
need for
just
laws which are centred on the human
person,
uphold
fundamental
rights and
restore
those rights
when
they
have
been
violated.
Such
laws should
also
provide for the rehabititation of victims, ensure
their
personal safety, and include
effective means of enforcement which
leave no room for conuption
or
impunity.
The
role
of women
in society
must
also be recognized,
not least through
initiatives
in the
sectors of culture and social
communications.
lntergovernmental
organizations,
in keeping
with the
principle
of subsidiarity, are
called
to
coordinate initiatives for
combating the transnational
networks
of organized crime which oversee
the trafftcking of
persons
and the illegal trafficking of migrants. Cooperation is clearly needed
at a
number
of
levels, involving
national
and
international institutions,
agencies of civil society
and the
world
of
finance.
Busrnessesplhave
a duty to ensure
dignified working
conditions
and adequate salaries for their
employees, but they must
also
be vigilant that forms of subjugation or human trafficking do not find
their
way
into
the
distribution chain. Together
with
the social
responsibility
of
businesses,
there
is
also
the social responsibility of consumers. Every
person
ought to
have the awareness
that
"purchasing
is
always a moral
-
and not simply an economic
-
act'.[,]
Organizations
in
civil society,
for
their
part,
have the task of awakening consciences
and
promoting
whatever
steps
are
necessary
for
combating and uprooting the culture of enslavement.
ln recent
years,
the
Holy
See,
attentive to
the
pain
of the
victims of trafftcking and
the voice
of
the
religious congregations
which
assist
them on
their
path
to
freedom, has increased its appeals to
the
international community
for cooperation and
collaboration
behueen different agencies
in
putting
an end to this
scourge.l&lMeetings
have also
been organized
to
draw
attention to
the
phenomenon
of human trafficking
and to
facilitate
cooperation
between
various agencies,
including experts
from the universities
and
international organizations,
police
forces from
migrants'
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
19/40
countries of origin, transit,
or destination,
and
representatives
of ecelesial
groups
which
work with
victims. lt
is my hope
that these efforts willcontinue
to expand in
years
to
come.
Glabalizing
fnatemity,
not
slavery or indifference
6. ln her
"proclamation
of the truth
of Christ's love in
society",lQ
the Church
con*tantly
engages in
charitable activities inspired
by
the truth of
the
human person. She is charged with showing to all
the
path
to
conversion, which
enables us to
change
the way
we
see
our neighbours,
to recognize
in
every
other
person
a brother
or sister in
our
human
family,
and
to
acknowledge
his or her
intrinsic
dignity in
truth
and
freedom.
This
can be clearly seen from the
story of Josephine Bakhita,
the
saint originally frorn the
Darfur
region
in
Sudan who was
kidnapped by slave-traffickers
and
sold to brutal masters
when she
was
nine
years
old.
Subsequently
-
as
a result
of
painful
experiences
-
she became a
Tree daughter of God"
thanks to
her
faith,
lived in
religious
consecmtion and in
service to
others, especially the
most
lowly and
helpless. This
saint, who
lived
at the turn
of
the
twentieth century, is
even
today an oxemplary witness
of
hopell0lfor
the many
victims of slavery; she can support the efforts of all those committed to fighting against this "open
wound
on
the
body
of mntemporary
society,
a
scourge
upon
the
body of
Chrisf-
[11]
ln the light
of all this, I invite
everyone,
in
accordance with his
or
her
specific
role
and
responsibilities,
to
pracitice
acts of
fi:atemity towards
those kept in
a state of enslavennent.
Let us
ask ourselves,
as individuals
and
as
communities, whether
we
feel
challenged
when, in
our
daily
lives,
we meet
or deal
with
persons
who
could be victims
of human
trafficking,
or
when
we are
tempted to
select items which
may
well
have
been
produced
by
exploiting others. Some of
us,
out
of indifference,
or financial reasons,
or because we
are caught
up
in
our
daily
concerns, close
our
eyes to this. Others, however, decide
to
do something about
it, to
join
civic associations
or
to
practice
small,
everyday
gestures
-
which
have
so
rnuch
merit
-
such
as
offering a kind
word,
a
greeting
or
a
smile, These
cost
us nothing
but they can
offer
hope,
open doors,
and
change
the
life
of another
person
who lives
clandestinely;
they can also change
our
own
lives with
respect
to
this
reality.
We ought to recognize
that we are facing
a
global phenornenon
which
exceeds the
competence
of
any
one
community
or country.
ln
order to
eliminate
it, we need
a mobilization
comparable
in
size
to that of the
phenomenon
itself.
For this reason
I
urgently appeal
to
all men
and
women
of
good
will,
and
all
those
near or
far,
including the highest levels of civil institutions, who witness
the
scourge
of
contemporary
slavery,
not to
become accomplices
to this
evil,
not
to turn
away
from
the
sufferings of
our brothets
and
sisters, our
fullow
human
beings, who
are
deprived of their freedom
and
dignity.
Instead,
may we have the courage
to
touch
the suffering
flesh
of
Christ,ll2l
revealed
in
the faces of those countless
persons
whom
he
calls the least of
these
my
brethren"
(Mi25:40,
45).
We know that God will ask each
of
us: What did
you
do for
your
brother?
(cf.
Gen 4:9-10). The
-
8/17/2019 A4V Traffic Ticket
20/40
globalization
of indifference,
which
today
burdens
the
lives
of so many of our
brothers and
sisters,
requires
all of us to
forge
a
new
worldwide
solidarity and fraternity
capable of
giving
them new
hope and helping
them to
adrrance
with
courage
amid
the
problems
of our
time and the new
horizons which they
disclose
and which
God
places
in
our hands.
