Brazil Publishes Guide For Human Trafficking Victims Abroad

BRASILIA - Brazil's Foreign Affairs Ministry Wednesday distributed a brochure entitled "Returning Guide" to aid Brazilian victims of human trafficking gangs abroad.

The objective of the guide is to prevent Brazilians who go abroad from becoming targets of sexual exploitation networks, the foreign ministry said.

The booklet, published in English and Portuguese, provides information on employment opportunities in South America and how to seek help in an emergency.

The guide was released three weeks after police from Portugal and Spain dismantled a prostitution ring with dozens of male victims. It showed that Brazilians can be misled by false promises of work and forced into prostitution.

A recent foreign ministry study shows that Brazilians are usually lured by offers to work as models or dancers in Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.
