Police stop traffic in sex slaves

AUSTRALIA: A man was charged in Australia with forcing Indonesian
women into prostitution on Wednesday while 14 women were captured
during raids on brothels in Melbourne, as police moved to
clampdown on the traffic in Asian sex slaves.

Indonesian national, Hosea Yoe, 47, appeared in a Sydney court
charged with luring three Indonesian women to Sydney with
promises of glamorous jobs and then forcing them to work as
prostitutes.

Yoe is the fourth person to be charged after an Australian
Federal Police investigation into how the three women ended up in
a Sydney brothel.

The women escaped from the brothel in June and fled to a
police station in Sydney's suburbs where they claimed they had
been kept as sex slaves after arriving in Australia expecting
work in public relations and hospitality. --AFP
