Tunisia –The Criminal Chamber of the Court of First Instance in Tunisia issued prison sentences ranging from 7 to 15 years against 11 defendants, after convicting them of forming an organized international network for human trafficking and exploiting Tunisian girls through fake work contracts that ended with them being detained and forced into prostitution in an East Asian country.
The court also imposed fines on the defendants amounting to approximately 100,000 dinars, after it was proven that they were involved in cases related to human trafficking and coordinating luring and exploitation operations outside the country.
Investigations revealed that members of the network were luring their victims, girls looking for job opportunities abroad, with promises of legal contracts, high salaries, and comfortable accommodation, before it became clear that the matter was related to a systematic fraud.
Once the victims arrived in the foreign country, their passports and phones were taken away and they were isolated from the outside world, preventing any contact with their families, before they were forced under threat and violence to work in prostitution networks whose profits went to the network’s leaders
