Trafficking in women and enforced prostitution are forms of
violence for profit to which a substantial number of women are
subjected. While trafficking is more prevalent in the case of foreign
women being brought into the country, internal trafficking of
Pakistani women is said to be on the rise, though there is
insufficient information about it. Enforced prostitution of girls from
lower-income backgrounds has always been in existence, with very
few being able to escape from the net even if they wish to do so.
However, very little has been done to effectively stem the practice
or to rehabilitate the victims of the crime. In fact, all legislation and
legal action has been focused on the victims of the crime, with little
attention directed at the pimps and agents who profit from it or the
prostitute-seekers, who are the persons responsible for the existence
and growth of the practice.
