Five Nigerian nationals - three men
and two women - were arrested on Tuesday for allegedly
'enslaving' young women from their homeland, subjecting them to
violence and extortion involving voodoo rituals and forcing them
into prostitution, police in the northern city of Lodi said.
During the probe that led to the arrests, investigators found
that four victims were being made to do sex work and give all
that they earned to the gang.
The gang alleged identified poor women it wanted to exploit at
refugee camps in Libya and then had them brought over to
northern Italy.
