In the month of January, O.U.R. supported three @aim_org operations, which resulted in the arrest of 3 predators and the rescue of 16 survivors. We are honored to work with AIM, who shares our mission to bring freedom to those being exploited. We are grateful for their good work. OPERATION NEW YEAR In central Phnom Penh, Cambodia, unassuming customers at a local coffee shop did not know that there were young girls being sold for sex in the back rooms. A trafficker was using the coffee shop as a front so they could sell children behind the scenes. With O.U.R. support, our partners at AIM along with local police raided the cafe to arrest the suspect and rescue the girls who were being sold. 3 minors and 1 woman were rescued. The suspect was successfully apprehended and charged with child sex trafficking-related offenses. Enough evidence was found to shut down the business. We are grateful to our friends at AIM for providing each survivor with the aftercare they needed. OPERATION MESSENGER In this case, a woman messaged several young girls on Facebook messenger to offer them “work”. She worked hard to manipulate and convince these girls to earn money by having sex with rich men in the city. With O.U.R. support, AIM SWAT and local police arrested this woman. In the following interviews, she admitted that her motive was to make money by trafficking these girls. 9 young survivors were rescued from the situations that this woman had put them in. They are now receiving the aftercare and legal services they need to move forward. OPERATION HARBOR In Operation Harbor, covert surveillance confirmed the suspicion that a minor was being sold in a brothel outside of Phnom Penh. With O.U.R. support, AIM SWAT and local police helped rescue the minor and two other women from the brothel. Enough evidence was found to immediately close the business. The suspect was arrested and is awaiting trial. All of the survivors are receiving aftercare and AIM’s legal team will represent all of the survivors in the upcoming court proceedings.
