SI TOCAN A UNA TOCAN A TODAS
The story of Alika
Alika is survivor of the crime of trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation in the Fire's land. Feminist militant and abolitionist. First and only victim of human trafficking in Argentina who has seen her pimps convicted and who has been indemnified from the state. She lives in a secret location under protection with her family cause her life is in danger after the sentence. It is estimated that in the country about 60,000 women are prisoners of this terrible network. They are sadly known like the new 'desaparecidas'. In Argentina ‘La ley de trata’ - the law against human trafficking - was created in 2008. The sentence varies from 5 to 18 years and is multiplied by each victim for which he is responsible. Recently a telephone line has also been set up to report crimes related to this issue, the line 145. 40% of victims in Argentina come from Paraguay. Human trafficking for purposes of sexual exploitation most of the time is linked to drug trafficking and the phenomenon involves several parts of society and often uses police and justice corruption to proliferate unpunished.
