1. I have six children. One of my daughters was kidnapped in 2000. We still hope that it will be. I have another daughter. She was 16 years old. I can not allow it to work, because I am afraid that it may also steal.
2. I was addicted to drugs, raped and forced into prostitution. After 9 months I ran away. Now I have three children. One of my twins congenital because of the drugs.
3. Child victims of trafficking.

5. My ex-lover sold me to a brothel, where I was raped and beaten. I and three other women helped to escape one of the clients. Now I'm married and I have a wonderful son. But I have HIV.
6. A police officer guards the house of the victims of the slave trade.
7. Once I was kidnapped. As I pumped the drugs, I was raped and beaten. After that I had to relearn how to have cutlery. In the photo is my child and my boyfriend.
8. I met a man on the internet. I do not want to talk about what happened then. In the photo - my mother and younger sister.
9. I was offered a job at the bar and have promised a lot of money. I do not want to talk about what happened then.
10. I was offered a job in a bar, said, I will earn more than now. On the first day I was taken to the basement and raped by several men. The owner of the bar - one of my rapists - put in jail, but now he is free. In the photo - my husband.
11. I am pregnant. My cousin told me about working in another part of the country. We went there by bus. During the trip, I overheard her phone conversation she asked me for more money. I called my mother, who called the police, and the bus was stopped before he came to the brothel. Now I'm waiting for the court. My cousin lives in the neighborhood.
