9 India: The Child Sex Highway | 101 East

Back to menu

17 jan. 2020

A notorious highway in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh is the site of a shocking trade. Girls as young as 10 are being forced to work as prostitutes – and it’s their own families selling them to passing trucks.
 
The girls are from the Bachara tribe, a low-caste community known as Dalits. Most of the Bachara men say discrimination stops them from getting jobs, so generations of girls have supported their families through prostitution. Meneka’s mother forced her into prostitution at the age of 15. She now has a two-year-old daughter of her own, and says she feels trapped. “I feel like I am born in the wrong place, doing the wrong thing. But what can I do? I can’t say much because this is our tradition.”
Filming undercover, 101 East discovers girls as young as 10 are being offered to men. While India introduced tougher child rape laws in 2018, advocates say the laws are not properly enforced.
 
“The people who are exploiting the child – they are not customers, they are rapists,” says Asheif Shaikh, the founder of a local NGO that frees local girls from what he describes as sexual slavery. “This practice is like the serial rape of the children … They are raped about 10 to 12 times in a day.” Madhya Pradesh has the highest number of reported child rape cases of any state in the nation In this exclusive investigation, 101 East exposes the Indian villages where parents sell their daughters for sex.

13 Children in Brazil Are Being Sold Into Sexual Slavery With Their Parents’ Consent

7 jul. 2016

Children for Sale (2010): The number of children sold into sexual slavery in Brazil is truly terrifying. An exposé of one of Brazil’s troubling sex industry.
 

Brazil’s many slums are plagued by child sex trafficking, with hundreds of thousands of girls and boys being bought, sold or kidnapped each year. 

Forced in to sex or, unbelievably, encouraged by their parents, these children are victims of severe abuse. “I left home at age 10. My father abused me” explains Juliana who has sold herself since she was 12 years old. Unemployment and poverty are both extremely high in Brazil, when Rosangela was offered a cleaning job by a much older Swiss man, she found it hard to refuse, little did she know she was about to enter the world of trafficking at the age of 17. “He managed to take all my documents, my ID, passport etc, and took me with him.” She became his slave and prisoner. Sex trafficking is an appalling truth to many young people – so why is this allowed to carry on? Could it be because the system itself is crooked?

16 It’s a Man’s World: Cambodia’s Rape Culture | 101 East

8 mrt. 2013

Gang rape hit the headlines last year after the brutal attack of a woman on a bus in India’s capital, Delhi.

But new research suggests that gang rape is a wider problem across Asia – with some of the highest recorded levels of violence against women in the world to be found within the Asia-Pacific region.

Despite years of attention and millions spent on preventing it, there has been little or no measured decrease in its occurrence. And simply responding to the outcomes of violence has not been enough to end it.

For the first time, researchers have compiled cross-country data from men – those who admit to using violence against women, and those who do not. It is hoped that understanding men’s own experiences will help to target the causes of violence against women and prevent it from happening at all.

Four UN agencies interviewed 10,000 men across seven countries in the Asia-Pacific, with startling results.

One in four said they had raped a woman or girl, while one in 25 admitted to taking part in gang rape.

Men say they start raping early, often in their teenage years and are frequently motivated by sexual entitlement. While the rates of violence are shocking, the variations between countries is giving hope to those working on programmes to prevent violence and rape, because it demonstrates that early intervention can make a difference.

The research confirmed that there is no single cause of violence, but a complex interplay of factors related to individual experiences, community norms, and societal elements.

101 East travels to Cambodia, a country representing some of the highest levels of rape in the region, to speak with men themselves about why they commit these crimes and to find out if the perpetrators can trigger new ideas for prevention.

Back to menu

12 dec. 2016

We rewind to 2013 when 101 East travelled to Cambodia to talk with men who admit rape and violence against women. Have attitudes changed since then?

Gang rape hit the headlines in a big way after the brutal attack of a woman on a bus in India’s capital, Delhi in 2012. But research showed that gang rape was a problem not just in India but across Asia.

The normalisation of violence against women… is still a common pattern around the world.

Dr Emma Fulu, The Equality Institute

In 2013, 101 East travelled to Cambodia, a country with some of the highest rates of rape in the region, to speak with men themselves about why they commit these crimes against women.

REWIND caught up with Dr Emma Fulu, the founder and director of The Equality Institute, which works to advance gender equality and prevent violence against women, to find out if there has been any progress in changing attitudes since 2013.

“The normalisation of violence against women, unfortunately, I think is still a common pattern around the world,” Fulu says.

But according to her, “the issue of violence against women is on the international agenda in a way that it wasn’t in 2013. In 2015, the sustainable development goals were launched and they now include a specific target on the elimination of violence against women and girls. So countries are required now to report on how they’re progressing in achieving that outcome.

“On the other hand is a pretty strong backlash to the women’s rights movement and to this issue of violence against women. I think you see that in social media, in mainstream media, you see it in the political sphere – I think you see that in the most recent US presidential election, where there was a huge amount of sexism and misogyny that was observed, and I think that level of backlash to the movement is becoming more pronounced. The positive thing about that backlash is what it actually shows, that we are moving forward.”

The real victims though are the sex workers’ children, conceived by foreign travellers. These children immediately stand out in the crowd, being of mixed-race here almost certainly means a child is the product of a liaison between a sex tourist and a call girl. They may stand out but they’re not unusual, within their communities there are many children of the sex trade. In most cases, the kids have never met their fathers who, after visiting for a brief holiday, either don’t know or care that their own offspring have been left behind. The burden of raising the children rests entirely on the shoulders of the already struggling mothers.

20 Sex for Grades: undercover inside Nigerian and Ghanaian universities – BBC Africa Eye documentary

Universities in Nigeria and Ghana have been plagued by stories of sexual harassment by lecturers and professors for decades. Allegations include a wide array of abuses, from blackmailing students for sex in exchange for marks and admission to lewd comments and grooming.

After gathering dozens of testimonies, BBC Africa Eye sent undercover journalists posing as students inside the University of Lagos (UNILAG) and the University of Ghana to capture footage of the sexual harassment.

Reporter Kiki Mordi, who knows first-hand how devastating sexual harassment can be, reveals what happens behind the closed doors of some of West Africa’s most prestigious universities.

21 The Senegalese Island That’s a Magnet for Paedophiles

30 nov. 2016

Paradise for Paedophiles (1998):

The Senegalese island of Goree is, by all accounts, paradise. The UNESCO World Heritage Site with a dark history of slaving has recently been blighted by a new problem: it has become a haven for paedophilia.

16-year old Aly has been propositioned for sex since he was a young boy. He’s been tempted by the offers – in return for sex he could perhaps get passage to the West, live his dream of being a rap star and get a record deal. It sounds easy. But the psychologist who runs a centre for abused street kids knows different. “Those kids feel shame about their bodies. They have a feeling of aggressiveness towards adults. It’s a threat to society.” Senegalese law is not on his side though. On paper paedophiles can be imprisoned for 10 years yet they rarely receive such harsh treatment. Last year a Canadian paedophile admitted guilt to the Senegalese police. He was fined $3000. Locals don’t want to talk about the lively influx of sex tourists. They don’t want their beautiful heritage-town to get a reputation. Nor do they want to put off tourists of any kind. It’s a sad indictment of poverty that anyone with money can get exactly what they want. A paedophile victim understands how the bribes work. “He said if I told he’d get into trouble and the money transfers back home would be stopped.” Some Europeans and a South African have been living in Goree for years. Everyone knows that they are paedophiles. But nobody says anything. Silence means more tourism – but for the children it means a destroyed life.

Paul Adhoch heads the United Nations aid agency Trace Kenya, which battles the trafficking of children.

He believes sex tourists in Kenya are creating a crisis.

“They are not relaxing at some beach or enjoying the wildlife,” Mr Adhoch told the ABC’s 7.30 program.

“They are, specifically, deep in the communities, in poverty stricken areas looking for sex — nothing else.”

The port city of Mombasa has been a centre of trade for hundreds of years and is now a hotspot for underage prostitution.

Trace Kenya estimates there could be as many as 40,000 child sex workers in the city, and the trade extends up and down the coast to the seaside resort towns of Malindi and Diani.

31 Teens as Young as 13 Rescued From Super Bowl Sex Trafficking

 
30 mrt 2017
W2R Training Video
 
 

5 feb. 2014

Sixteen teenagers ranging in age from 13 to 17 were recovered by law enforcement in a crackdown on child trafficking surrounding the Super Bowl last weekend. The FBI said the teens included high school students and young people reported missing by their families.

“It is the most significant operation we’ve had around a big event,” Michael Osborne of the FBI’s Violent Crimes Against Children Unit told ABC News. “This is the most recoveries we’ve had at one time.”

Officials said the vast majority of the rescued teens were girls.

Osborne said he calls taking the young people off the street “recoveries,” because the children are not charged. In child exploitation cases like this, law enforcement officials said operations are designed to remove the young victims from a life of exploitation and abuse.

“These recoveries are victim-focused,” Osborn said. “Many times these young people are kept in this life by pimps using sexual, physical and emotional abuse.”

The law enforcement effort to help the young victims goes well beyond providing overnight food, clothing and shelter, Osborne said. Over the course of the operation, the FBI’s victim specialists’ provided 70 women and children referrals to health care facilities, shelters, and other programs. Osborne said the FBI works with social service specialists to provide for the long-term needs of the victims as well.

“We provide everything we can to try to pull them out of their situation, like education information and family counseling,” Osborne said. The family counseling, he explained, is needed because many of the young girls who end up being exploited are runaways. “We know there is a very close correlation between runaway girls and prostitution.”

What is striking in many cases, he said, is that the young victims themselves don’t think they deserve the help. “They don’t think they are worth saving,” Osborne said. “Sometimes we are the only people in their lives who haven’t given up on them.”

The crackdown also identified and arrested 45 pimps and their associates. The arrests came in New York, New Jersey and in Connecticut in the days leading up to the Super Bowl.

Osborne said the FBI teamed with state and local law enforcement to develop intelligence about the movement of pimps and prostitutes into the vicinity of the Super Bowl, as they do with any big event, like a big game or convention. That’s because pimps and “facilitators” move girls around from state to state to find a large gathering of potential customers.

“High-profile special events, which draw large crowds, have become lucrative opportunities for child prostitution criminal enterprises,” said Ron Hosko, assistant director of the FBI’s Criminal Investigative Division. “The FBI and our partners remain committed to stopping this cycle of victimization and putting those who try to profit from this type of criminal activity behind bars.”

Osborne said many times, prostitutes are not walking the streets anymore, but rather their services are offered on internet sites by their pimps.

“No doubt about it, we had a lot of internet activity in the past week,” Osborne said.

16 dec. 2016

This exceptional film follows two young sisters in the Philippines who help former Australian police and Special Forces officers rescue underage girls from sex bars.

In the Phillipines, over 800,000 women and children work in the sex-trade. Police corruption makes local law enforcement ineffective in protecting the most vulnerable groups from abuse. 16 year-old Michelle and 19 year-old Marisol were both abused by foreign men as children and had also worked in Subic Bay’s sex bars. They now work at PREDA, a human rights foundation set up in 1974 by Fr. Shay Cullen, an Irish Catholic priest. Together, with former Australian Federal Police officers, the group sets out on a sting operation to bring child-abusers to justice.

With exclusive access, this is a gripping investigation into an urgent crisis led by the brave, teenage sisters who sacrifice their own safety to save others from the same fate.

Priests and the Sex Mafia (2007): Watch the brave priest who has gone undercover to expose the sex trade in the Philippines.

 

Posing as a sex tourist and trying to buy children is one of Father Cullen’s tactics for rescuing child sex slaves in the Philippines. But locals, including other churchmen, accuse him of going too far.

“They’re sold like chickens in a market”, laments Father Cullen. “We’ve rescued children as young as 13”. For decades, Father Cullen has posed as a paedophile in the Philippines, trawling the internet and going undercover to get evidence no court can ignore. But critics accuse him of ruining lives and coaching children to lie in court. “He’s out to make money”, alleges Father Duffin. Despite the controversy, Father Cullen is determined to continue fighting against what he calls the Sex Mafia. “We won’t give up. There’s still so much to do.

4 okt 2023


From NBC 7 comes STOLEN; an expansive documentary series about sex trafficking and the exploitation of children in San Diego County and beyond.

Told from multiple perspectives, STOLEN explains why the illicit child sex market thrives in San Diego County and across the U.S., while chronicling the strength of survivors, their families, and advocates working to break that destructive cycle and reclaim their stolen lives.

Understand the issue in a new way by hearing the jailhouse recordings of a convicted trafficker manipulating two teen girls into selling themselves online. The tapes led to an NBC7 investigation exposing gaps in the justice system that allow people who pay to sexually assault children to face little to no consequences.

The documentary is the product of a year-long investigation that includes exclusive interviews and, for the first time ever, substantial proof of the scope of the problem in San Diego County schools. And as a global pandemic shifts the education system into a virtual space, experts warn of exploiters targeting children online, now more than ever before.
