Sex trafficking is human trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation. It has been called a form of modern slavery because of the way victims are forced into sexual acts, usually non-consensually, in a form of sexual slavery. Perpetrators of the crime are called sex traffickers or pimps—people who manipulate victims to engage in various forms of commercial sex with paying customers. (Wikipedia)
Selling sex is legal in the UK but pimping and sex trafficking is against the law and the Panorama investigation found that Vivastreet was “culpable” in sexual exploitation. (Lancashire Telegraph)
Given the trauma bond that often exists between victims and offenders, it is common for sex trafficking survivors to return to their victimizer, especially when adequate services are absent. (The Hill)
