IRAN^^ in reference to pre established human trafficking hideouts along the shipping routes: SNIP "Hideouts on the islands – located in the 39km stretch of the Strait of Hormuz – are used to torture the Bangladeshi expatriates, while their families back home are contacted to demand ransom. Many of the hostages are unable to survive the torture, and die there at the hands of their captors."

I really don't know about the accuracy of the statement made by the OP--haven't researched it in a lot of detail. However, we do know that these rings are trading people, arms and drugs. And he who owns the shipping lanes owns the traders.
