Human trafficking:African Girls forced to work in Salons
A federal judge has offered punishment to Akouavi Afolabi for 27 many years for that offense of human trafficking. Afolabi is really a West African woman who brought African girls to America using fake visas. These girls were forced to work in Salons without getting any payment. She gave the African girls false assurance, that she would give them correct training that will alter their life. By producing fake promises she trapped them and brought to U.S. right after arriving in US they were not permitted to learn English and were compelled to forced-labor in salons.
Afolabi was under arrest in 2007 with 3 other people on human trafficking offense. She pleaded to the court to forgive her as she lifted the African girls out of poverty and trained them a skill to earn money.
But she failed to impress the judge and received a punishment of twenty 7 years. one other people obtained punishments in the same situation include her son and ex- husband. Lassissi Afolabi. His ex- husband has received a verdict of twenty four many years imprisonment while her son Derek Hounakey will serve for 55 months in prison.
