Two people are due to appear in court after being arrested in connection with human trafficking offences.

Police Scotland said a 28-year-old man and a 50-year-old woman were arrested and charged in connection with alleged offences in Glasgow.

It comes after an investigation by greater Glasgow's dedicated Human Trafficking Unit, with Police Scotland confirming the arrests were made on Friday.

The pair will appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Monday.

Det Insp Grant Currie said: "We are committed to working with our partners to pursue those involved in this type of criminality, with strong focus on safeguarding individuals who may be at risk of exploitation.

"Information from people within our communities is key to helping us identify those involved in committing these crimes against vulnerable people in our society."

He urged anyone with information to contact police.
