| Non-governmental organizations Global Witness and Partnership Africa Canada warn in a new report that the illicit trade in rough diamonds is one of the greatest threats facing the Kimberley Process. "The KP was created to halt and prevent the trade in conflict diamonds that cost so many lives during the last two decades. At the end of the scheme's fifth year, the trafficking of conflict and illicit stones is looking more like a dangerous rule than an exception," opens the ‘Loupe Holes In The Kimberley Process' report.
