Trafficking in Women for the Purpose of Sexual Exploatation on the Territory of the Former Yugoslavia

Trafficking in women for the purpose of sexual exploitation as a means of sexual enslavement is one of the most frequent and acutest forms of organized crime on the territory of the six republics of the former Yugoslavia. Geopolitically, this area is a part of South-Eastern Europe, which belongs to main sources of trafficking in women in the world according to the dynamics and volume of the exploitation and its figures can be compared only to Asia. Although in the context of South-Eastern Europe the figures reach the level of 120, 000 victims per year, this number is definitely bigger considering the well organized (mostly international) criminal network which easily escapes judicial bodies and the disinclination of victims to willingly speak about their traumas.
