UKRAINIAN POLICE ARREST SEX TRADE GANG. Police in the port of Sevastopol, Crimea, have arrested two men and a woman
suspected of selling some 200 females aged 13 to 25 years to individuals engaged in illegal sex business abroad, UNIAN
reported on 17 March. The three allegedly received $2,000 for each woman sent to night clubs in Turkey, Greece, or
Cyprus, where the women were subsequently forced to become prostitutes. The International Organization for Migration
estimated last year that more than 1 million Ukrainian women seeking work abroad are in danger of becoming ensnared in
the illegal sex business. JM
