Group that traces minor, destroyed by DIICOT
A 24 -year -old was under judicial control by DIICOT, being accused of forcing a 16 -year -old girl to prostitute.
In the same file, a month ago, two other young people, aged 20 and 24, were preventively arrested for 30 days, under the charge of minor trafficking.
From the evidence administered in this case, it turned out that, between September 2024-March 2025, the 20-year-old defendant, taking advantage of the vulnerability of three girls, aged 16 and 17, determined them, including by exercising physical and mental violence, in practicing prostitution. The girls were housed in different locations, including a building with a residential space and hotel complex.
Also, the research revealed that, during the period between the summer of 2024 and March 2025, for obtaining material benefits, the 24-year-old defendant transported, received and housed one of the girls, helping the 20-year-old in the sexual exploitation of the victims.
The judicial activities were carried out together with the policemen of the Organized Crime Fighting Brigade.
The actions benefited from the support of the police officers of the Olt Organized Crime Fighting Service, as well as the gendarmes of the Special Intervention Brigade of the Gendarmerie and the Argeș County Gendarmes Inspectorate.
The minor injured persons were taken over by an organization specialized in counseling and ensuring specific protective measures for victims of trafficking in persons/minors.
