The Sex Worker Education and Advocacy Taskforce (Sweat) on Thursday said it was not surprised more young women were being lured from their rural homes to work as sex workers in big cities.

Cape Town’s vice squad said females from Prieska in the Northern Cape, some of whom are only 17-years-old, were being forced to become prostitutes.
