Police arrest 15 year-old teen as part of gang selling women into prostitution

Police have prevented dealers from selling 26 women coming mostly from Ukraine, Bulgaria, Belarus, Romania and two under age Poles. Over ten men were caught and among them was one who was only 15 years-old. He turned out to be son of the boss and had money to buy new women. "Police officers acted quickly and very accurately," said Marzena S., the mother of the owner of hotel in which arrests were made. "Operations against such dealers are still in action and further arrests will be made," said Jacek Raczkiewicz from the voivodship police headquarters in Radom. The Police estimate that 15,000 women are brought to Poland for prostitution each year. (Gazeta Wyborcza, page 1) M.M.
