CAUTION: The following links
and accompanying text have been culled from the web to illuminate the
situation in HOW TO USE THIS WEBPAGE Students If you are looking
for material to use in a term-paper, you are advised to scan the postings on
this page and others to see which aspects of child prostitution are of
particular interest to you. You might
be interested in exploring how children got started, how they survive, and
how some succeed in leaving. Perhaps
your paper could focus on runaways and the abuse that led to their
leaving. Other factors of interest
might be poverty, rejection, drug dependence, coercion, violence, addiction,
hunger, neglect, etc. On the other
hand, you might choose to write about the manipulative and dangerous adults
who control this activity. There is a
lot to the subject of Child Prostitution.
Scan other countries as well as this one. Draw comparisons between activity in
adjacent countries and/or regions.

September 2020] SEXUAL
EXPLOITATION OF CHILDREN - The possession, sale, purchase, or propagation of
child pornography is illegal. The penalty for conviction of violations ranged
from six months to eight years in prison. The government enforced the law
effectively. The law prohibits sexual violence and abuse of minors and
soliciting minors for sexual purposes. Statutory rape carries a prison
sentence of three to eight years in prison. The law sets the minimum age of
consent for sexual relations at 15. The government generally enforced the
law. In March a local
court penalized a general medical practitioner with an 18-month suspended
sentence for abuse of power and violation of the sexual integrity of a minor
for allegedly demanding a 16-year-old disrobe and touching the victim’s
breasts and genital areas during an examination for mononucleosis. In 2018 the hotline
Spletno oko (Web Eye)
received a sharp increase of reports of potential online criminal acts
related to the sexual abuse of children compared with 2017. Concluding

source country for traffickers who bring women and children for sexual
exploitation to western Europe, in particular to Austria. It does not play a
significant role as a destination for paedo-sexual
perpetrators. ***
