Question 2Victims of illicit trade are? 1 pointManufacturersPolice officers on the line of dutyStreet vendors who are selling counterfeited goods

The victims of illicit trade can be numerous and varied, depending on the context. However, based on the options provided:

1. Manufacturers: Yes, manufacturers can be victims of illicit trade. When counterfeit or pirated goods are sold, it undermines the business of legitimate manufacturers. They lose sales and their brand reputation can be damaged, which can have long-term effects on their business.

2. Police officers on the line of duty: While police officers can be indirectly affected by illicit trade (for example, if it leads to increased crime), they are not typically considered the primary victims of this activity.

3. Street vendors who are selling counterfeited goods: This is a bit more complex. If the street vendors are knowingly selling counterfeited goods, they are participating in the illicit trade and are not victims. However, if they are unknowingly selling counterfeited goods, they could be considered victims as they are at risk of legal consequences and are being exploited by those higher up in the supply chain.

So, based on these considerations, the most direct victims of illicit trade among the options provided are manufacturers and potentially street vendors (if they are unknowingly involved).
