Dutch police move on red-light district pimps

Saturday 8th May, 2010
Authorities in the Dutch city of Amsterdam have arrested members of an international gang which had been luring women from eastern European countries to work as prostitutes.
Nine people have been arrested, including three alleged pimps and owners of brothels in the infamous red light district.
Amsterdam's prosecutors have said most of the women were enticed to the city from places like Hungary, with promises that were never kept.
The alleged procurers supposedly used violence and rape to intimidate the women while forcing them to work as prostitutes in the red-lit windows that are part of Amsterdam's tourist walk.
Recently, police have been cracking down on illegal activities in Amsterdam's 800-year-old red light district.
Some of the brothels have even been closed down in the past year because of organised crime links.  Email this story to a friend
