  TITLE:  Slave children's camp in Tekirdag 
 
  BEGIN TEXT:  Ugur Dundar's Arena program, aired on Kanal 
  D and CNN Turk, showed the plight of child workers who 
  were made to work like slaves at brick factories. 
 
  Dundar, accompanied by Labor Ministry inspectors, visited 
  the factory and brought to light the unhealthy working 
  conditions.  He also showed how he was detained by the 
  Jandarma. 
 
  The Arena team, following a tip that was received from 
  Tekirdag, documented that many children were made to work 
  under incredible conditions at brick factories. 
 
  Children who were employed illegally were carrying heavy 
  bricks in the mist of dust and soil.  They were sleeping 
  in unhealthy conditions at night.  Even girls were 
  working under the same conditions. 
 
  Dundar and his team entered a brick factory and 
  interviewed the children.  Upon the factory owner's 
  application, the Jandarma detained Dundar and his team in 
  Kumbag.  They were released after three hours. 
 
  Murat Ayhan Basaran, Department Head for Child Labor at 
  the Labor Ministry, said that children must not be 
  employed under those conditions. 
 
  Highlights of the interview with the children included: 
 
  -- How old were you when you began to work here? 
  -- Nine. 
 
  -- Do you wear a mask? 
  -- No. 
 
  -- You have been here for one and a half months.  How 
  many times did you have meat to eat? 
  -- Twice. 
 
  -- What do you do for ten hours? 
  -- We clean the premises.  It is hard.  There is dirt and 
  stone.  We are constantly in dust.  You cannot see 
  around. 
 
  -- How much money do you get? 
  -- I get 10 million TL (less than 8 USD) a day. 
 
  -- Have you received that money? 
  -- Not yet. 
 
  -- Why are you washing your mouth? 
  -- It is full of dust. 
 
  -- When you spit, do you feel the dust? 
  -- Yes. 
 
  -- How do you describe this place? 
  -- I would say that working conditions are very hard. 
  The daily payment is low.  Sleeping (here) is awful. 
 
  -- In other words, you are saying that it is not suitable 
  to sleep? 
  -- When you go inside, (you see) bedbugs.  You can see 
  (on me) their marks.  END TEXT.

     TITLE:  Woman trafficked to Kosovo becomes pimp in 
     Moldova 
 
     BEGIN TEXT:  The capital's police have detained a 
     resident of Anenii Noi district who is suspected of 
     trafficking many young girls to Kosovo. 
 
     According to the General Police Commissariat, Carolina 
     Gherasimov, 25, was arrested in an apartment on Ginta 
     Latina Street from the capital, together with three 
     young girls who were to be trafficked soon to Kosovo. 
 
     Gherasimov is also suspected of procuring in Moldova. 
     The cited source says that the forces of order 
     discovered three cases of trafficking organized by 
     Gherasimov.  The suspect registered all the necessary 
     documents for transporting the victims.  She was 
     cooperating with a person from Kosovo who is still 
     unidentified. 
 
     Upon investigation it was established that Gherasimov 
     was earlier trafficked to Kosovo, where she practiced 
     prostitution.  The police found out that while 
     registering the documents Gherasimov forced the young 
     girls to provide intimate services for clients from 
     Moldova. 
 
     Criminal proceedings were instituted on the basis of 
     Articles 220 and 165 of the Penal Code (procuring) and 
     (trafficking in human beings), which stipulate jail 
     terms of up to 25 years. 
 
     Sergiu Purcica, division head at the Center for 
     Combating Trafficking in Persons, told REPORTER.MD that 
     216 cases of trafficking in persons, 47 cases of 
     trafficking in children and 90 cases of procuring were 
     registered in the first nine months of the current 
     year.  Purcica specified that Turkey, the Arab Emirates 
     and Russia, especially Moscow, are the most attractive 
     centers of activity for traffickers at present.  END

     Istiklal Street (in Istanbul) and Gribal was saved from 
     the hands of the network.  Alina Muradova, the alleged

     Chitvas, fled.
