Extent of trafficking in women and girls in Guyana, a serious problem – GHRA

As the world observes International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women today, the Guyana Human Rights Association (GHRA) has said that international trafficking of predominantly foreign women and girls into strip clubs and bars in Guyana is a serious problem. 

According to a statement from the association, the trafficked women along with local men service an equally strong foreign clientele largely from goldfields and possibly oil rigs and construction workers.
