Prostitution

The number of underage girls in prostitution is increasing in Angola. Relatives or guardians force girls as young as 10 from rural areas into prostitution. Nightclub owners allow girls to enter the club to be sexually exploited. (Santos Virgilio, "Poverty and the Effects of War," IPS, 8 January 1998)
