look i do but you know we just. want to because. she has pushed cause. let's focus. and pressure put us on the. this is the story of a trade in human flesh a global trafficking industry the ruins the lives of millions of young women every day of every year. around the world our best estimate is 27000000 slaves globally 6 or 8 percent of us sex trafficking. but it's also the story of 2 european cities more than

a 1000 kilometers apart and at opposite ends of the world wide chain of sex slavery . today the trail of trafficked women most often ends in the rich and liberal countries of western europe but it begins in the poor and underdeveloped former soviet bloc nations and one country in particular the republic of moldova. now is the capital of moldova the poorest country in europe where many young moldovans are often forced to go abroad in order just to survive and is this desperation which has meant that so many young mold of and women are often jute into the sex trafficking industry. when children learn that it will come out of a charity i'm still it's not ideal engineer. but they'll say look into the can so my. kids have time to chill and i want to fit a spot that this is solid enough that you for your movies doga

a lawyer who has represented more than 700 victims of sex trafficking the story starts and ends with poverty ok to not them yes to chip. or for that show there's do you know what. thought so was the later but also a lot of good as they could get jammed which is how many of you could just go by sheer. molecules that are in about this are full of physics but. outside of the reality of poverty a strong moldova is still a country largely reliant on subsistence farming. we're heading for the small southern town of tal shame. we're going to meet a young woman who escaped from international sex slavery just a few weeks ago. somebody

some. don't just. want. to hear. i say. fine that's a thought. you know. what i am talking and in this post my chip chip pushes. who. i'm behind it is not that. you're not. should. they push up or to push the most important because so many of these were not on 11 of those just because more people.

want to have bought. involved. and you know what with eric in the post. she has to try moves. sidelights with those shots back nobody will discuss the new good reason rudy is that there squash the right sort of the dog in the billions construct stopped keeping. because the. young ship the bushy. he took them politically answered. marty one product might explode just which could difficult gives up the shop. that they set him by. the arena is one of the luckier victims of international sex slavery is now receiving intensive counseling for help from

a team of specialists volunteers but many thousands like you get no help at all. in a small office in kids you know volunteers from los stronger an international mt trafficking in geo run a hotline for women tricked like the arena into sexual slavery abroad. we have around 28 cases that we are working on receive calls mostly from politicians they might say my daughter called me yesterday. and she was crying and she asked me to help her so this is what we. do it on a daily basis if from the most common ploy used by moldovan traffickers is to place a bogus job adverts in the local newspaper. the strongest team ahmed says each

edition. this is a very interesting proposals for younger woman work for ford then saying in the dip ben. is very suspicious because they give home to the girl the brady and the so are. $2000.00 there. to uncover how the scam works one of our undercover team responded to one of these outfits. i am one who will go. to far too. much longer than i meant. i just. got is the deal of the law. of the lampton the ask syria. is the more the law should go back one thread that the more the other thought that issue and the fact that you called the bottle as if it were the budget

is if it all 4 of them want most the advertiser who calls herself olga quickly offers our undercover investigator a job interview. bin but instead of meeting in an office during business hours she wants to meet on a street corner at 9 o'clock at night. this would make the process vicious if you are to sick employment in moldova you will probably never meet with future employer or even agency that is interested in eating plant you live and meet on the street. olga takes our undercover investigator to a noisy bar very quickly she begins her sales pitch. was. right i think maybe we didn't. do anything to. the extent that i

did was. the defense was the issue was i decide. i didn't it was a. time that. i did. wasn't a were doing was and i and i are of enco has seen this many times and seen exactly what happens to those who fall for traffickers page. when. the traffickers actually use follow the thread psychology and emotions from the very beginning until the very end their claim was that. they used their own fears

or hopes to change the person. moldovan recruiters typically sell them 1st to local brussels where they are 1st forced into sex slavery then trafficked abroad. we sent another undercover journalist into the suv of these clubs to uncover the next stage in the trail. it was quickly introduced to sex traffickers. that this man boasted he could provide up to 50 women. the 2 month period and said he was already working with brothel owners throughout europe. some that's. true. and. for. the next day undercover journalist was introduced to a 2nd trafficker in

a park in the center of his you know. anything that i can and i see. if. you. and then i would find. he was happy to explain how he would ship his cargo of sex slaves into the european union fine neighboring countries. to get these out there you can tell. they don't. mind. these 2 pimps a small players in the sex trafficking industry. to track down one of the kingpins we have come to a shabby prison in the remote news so maybe over. a year he will come to hold a show going to the new movie building on the menu. for nearly 10 years alexander

cavani known as shallow trafficked sex slaves out of moldova and across europe from his clubs in case you know. you love a good thinking machine chine little see. is that i. was going to defeat me because i just look at it in italian always thought that oedipal they come up on you hope they get you in story so what the night into shorted what the brain is that he became in a silent to let him loose discipline l l sung songs are not useful for the lady upon society helpless to kill. yet all. i mean inside. but if you all are here it all gets murkier subsoil chilly coverly was convicted of sex trafficking in 2007 but he still protests his innocence the dream your book of that of absoluteness. the new model who can your thought and might be more of noble birth then but is not that not the booth for gas cars all but if you dig deeply

younger but if you will of the only one who got the whole give a fuck instead he says his sex slaves voluntarily prostituted themselves after finishing work in his clubs you were really looking for months it. was all worked up with the name of your deal at the legionaries. your visitor go to work on case remembers those women differently. or the mare that i declared simple to have a little yeah just a cold the possibility that it's a sin which can do all we can that give your soichi the vault it at that all it should be a good ball. again we can't let you get back of course a lot yet that pick up the ideal why would she do that why would she have done that if she wasn't involved in any of the things that you say your business was and also globally if you go around me i'm delia. would get

a bill sure. but don't listen because ultimately because any such a beautiful word should use the developers then as a group they knew what was going on and will do so it was a limited sort of a woman should but little really. because also because i me it's a downer but it was always a bit would. show luke of ali was sentenced to 19 years in prison but his prosecution was a rare success in moldova's fights against sex trafficking. 3040 more i think it. was that. the media mulled over has neither the resources nor the infrastructure to stop the trafficking of its women into sex slavery and to those who tried to protect them the responsibility for policing the trade lies elsewhere. if a problem only

a small dog if a problem is 10 said long as they start that it's lethal a problem must watch it that. it's like there's a fitting it. in a cat if. you. like a cherished post want of wings he silent not us and its enemy and if i mean a typical model and it's out of. less than a day's drive away one country and one city above will positively celebrate the economics of demonic for postage in 2000 the dutch government took the radical step of legalizing prostitution. as a means to prevent women being trafficked and forced into the sex industry. today there are more than 1200 prostitution businesses traval m. m saddam alone has 300 brothels. all and believes that it has the best system of dealing with the

worst excesses of sexual slavery and nowhere sums it up more than the city of amsterdam but look behind the windows and does that proposition really hold up to scrutiny. the dutch legislators have not lost their mind again prostitution policy but there is a vision that if you tried to compare old van gelder heads amsterdam police's and to traffic he scored one of the positive advantages of our policy is that for instance prostitute has no fear for the police it's a legal profession if you follow the rules the police won't bother you and i understand that we only see the tip of the iceberg but at least it's a percentage of the branch which we can't control they rent but with only 7 detectives out of a city police force of $6000.00 offices were just how much does harold van gelder actually see let alone control now. yes is it possible to say the percentage of

women in the sex industry here and i'm system who have been trafficked now it's not possible it's. not even an estimation and no no i don't i can't give you that because at least we don't even know how much how much prostitutes are working in amsterdam because we are not registering the prostitutes why should the police wretches straight them because we don't read straight all the butchers or the bakers financing them. yet just a few miles across the city holland's national trafficking reporting organization has a very clear idea of the numbers of women forced into the country's legalized prostitution industry. if you look at the figures from last year we had about a 1000 registered victims of human trafficking about 80 percent is section history and there's little doubt why so many trafficking victims and sex slaves hollandaise

famous for its red light district there's a mob for young girls into prostitution and so i think traffickers make use of our system. legalize prostitution to bring them in all of these to the past to get them into. prostitution holland $660000000.00 euros every year 4000000 tourists flock to amsterdam most to steroids and often times the mines the prostitutes working in it's me only would. have a lot of money so here are my trial for women and families together if we have. bush asked me and the victim in the traffic toshi that has worked for 16 years with the women working in the windows of amsterdam's red light districts if you want to you even think and you want to believe there are a lot. the things what they are doing you know. the story behind them is so all

different that what you see each street she says is organized by nationality. there are certain streets where you have the south america transsexuals then there's another street where the majority are hungary and then here you have the spanish speaking i guess. how have things changed in the sex industry in all of from say 1520 years ago to now. because of the european union whenever we open up in the 9 months for a counter strike romania bulgaria hungary i mean we see this whole change at the moment the majority of the woman i see yes we got the girls from albania i mean how can a girl from albania out of a village i don't know where from no way to know where to really know how to run to win the must be an organized crime gang this is the true face of holland's

experiments in legalized prostitution and this is the face of the man who trafficked her here. when she worked as his 6 lead. over to year period shut down by the leader of a turkish morgan ised crime gun trafficking them $130.00 women mostly from eastern europe to holland's red light districts. each woman was time through with his gangs brian. was forced to service 20 clients and. they behaved in a very brutal way because we have seen cases of forced to abortion issue cases so for forced to use with the names of the pimps on the girls some girls are beaten up and too high to bruce just put in cold water and beaten up in a terrible way to die. prosecutors the brown case was

a warning that the dutch experiments in legalizing prostitution had worsened not solved the problem of international sex slavery we thought in 2000 the more liberal for you to prostitution and stand outs trafficking that proved to be wrong 60 to 70 percent of the women. in this case were being forced to work in legalized prostitution seems it is modern slavery jeff again human being is a kind of modern slavery. 5000 miles away in america the man who once led the global fight against slavery has long argued that holland is the cause of not the solution to international sex trafficking. i think all it's happened is the dutch government has become the super penpal for 4 years john miller was the u.s.

state department's anti slavery worldwide ambassador today he sees the history of slavery repeating itself. believe that they're being very sophisticated in regulating the interesting thing is this is the exact same approach they took back in the 17th century the dutch use to boast about how they had the healthiest slave ships they had the best. they had the best ration they had the best mattresses for the slaves they provided doctors. but slavery went on and on all their talk about regulation was an excuse to avoid abolition every year the u.s. government's publishes a report which judges every country in the world on its efforts to stamp out slavery the trafficking in persons or tip report ranks countries that do the most

as tier one. the state department has always given tier one status to holland despite the vehement opposition of john miller i have visited the red light district i've seen the young men with the leather jackets standing outside those windows counting who goes in and making sure they get all the profits all i can say is i didn't think according to our law that they were to or why. giving such favored status to rich western countries which fuel demand for sex slaves angers impoverished source countries like moldova least because it slowly ranking has put it in danger of economic sanctions from washington. and very often we see that economically strong countries with making good of both these are exactly the countries well our citizens exploited this in the countries that failed to show

protection and these other countries that imposed those double standards. the fates of the 2 convicted sex traffickers highlights those double standards. alexander will spend the next 19 years locked in a mold even prison. is back home in turkey and free the dutch government allowed him out of jail for one day you have squandered and never return. until the rich western countries address the demand for prostitution rather than profit from it there will always be like a volley and butter and there will always be sex slaves behind these windows. in the next episode of slavery a 21st century evil entire families of slaves trapped in the brick kilns of
