Teen ethnic girl rescued from sex trade

Soldiers at Lao Cai border gate in the northern mountainous province have rescued a 14-year-old ethnic girl from two human traffickers.
The victim only known as Men resides in Moc Chau District, Son La Northern Province.
According to police, Men went to Hanoi by bus in early March to visit her boyfriend, who was studying here.
However, she didn’t get in touch with her boyfriend and even did not have a penny to buy a return ticket when she arrived at the bus station. An assistant driver nearby promised to find her a well-paid job.
She said the man lured her into a brothel in Hanoi’s outskirts where she was forced to have sex with lots of men including two regular customers Bui Van Thang, 20, and Trinh Xuan Truong, 22.
Three weeks later, Thang and Truong invited her to sell clothes at Lao Cai border area.
However, the two men didn’t offer her a good job as promised. Instead, they conspired to sell her to a brothel in China. They were arrested in early April when they tried to bring her across the border.
Thang admitted he had relationship with some sex slave traders in China through his sister, who is working as a sex worker in China.
Since early year, Lao Cai border’s authorities have busted 9 human trafficking cases, rescuing many victims.
