Africa Eye

Imported For My Body

First broadcast: on BBC WORLD NEWS AfricaLatest broadcast: on BBC WORLD NEWS Middle East

BBC Africa Eye has uncovered an illegal network that lures women to India from Africa, where they are then forced into prostitution to satisfy the demands of the many African men living in New Delhi.
The women are mostly from Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, Tanzania and Rwanda. They have their passports confiscated and their movements restricted by their brothel madams, until they have paid off the grossly inflated fee for the facilitation of their travel to India. One brave woman, Grace, who was trafficked from Kenya, agreed to go undercover for BBC Africa Eye. Nyasha Kadandara has more on her ordeal. Show less
