It
is difficult to recognize victims of traf-
ficking in human beings. It is seldom
clear cut.
You do not have to become an expert.
But you can take a closer look.
The woman needs support if:
- she tells you that she is being forced into prostitution
- she tells you that she has been raped
- she is being abused
- she is being exploited
- she
has extremely high debts with the owner of the
brothel or an intermediary - she does not have freedom of movement
- she is being constantly watched
- a
third person tells you that you can do anything
you want with her - she is not allowed to refuse a client
- she is not allowed to refuse certain sexual practices
- she does not have the chance to insist on using condoms
- she receives very little or no money at all for her work
- she has to be available around the clock
- her passport has been taken away from her
- she has to hand over her income to a pimp
