Bashkim Allçiu is a 39-year-old man of Albanian origin who has been arrested in Naples, Italy. He is charged with several criminal offenses such as:
"Slavery crimes", "continuous extortion" and "personal physical harm" against two sisters from Ukraine who are said to have forced the 39-year-old into prostitution.
It is learned that the Ukrainian sisters after arriving in Italy to work ended up in the hands of the 39-year-old who forced them to work as prostitutes in the Giuliano area in Campanja.
Italian media suggest that one of the girls had asked to leave the job after she became pregnant but Allçiu had asked her for a sum of 10 thousand euros to let her go free.
Prosecutors in the case say that this illegal activity guaranteed the 39-year-old Albanian a profit of 32 thousand euros within the year.
