Girls trafficker sentenced to 22 years for trafficking girls into UK

Franca Asemota, a trafficker who threatened to use "juju magic" against the women and children she helped to bring into Europe for forced prostitution has been sentenced to 22 years imprisonment today.

She was convicted on 3rd August at Isleworth Crown Court of eight counts of conspiracy to traffic persons for sexual exploitation, two counts of trafficking persons outside of the UK for sexual exploitation and two counts of assisting unlawful immigration.

David Davies, CPS London reviewing lawyer, said: "This case demonstrates how the CPS will work with partners, in the UK and overseas, in order to tackle the trafficking gangs who make huge profits from human misery."
