ISF unit arrests members of a prostitution ring in Broumana

The Internal Security Forces arrested on Saturday members of a prostitution network in the Mount Lebanon town of Broumana.

The ISF added that all the members of the prostitution ring are Syrian nationals.

The detainees were identified as J.Kh, 48, F.N., 19, D.T., 29, R.H., 27, N.A., 22, N.S., 22, Kh.D., 25, A.A., 22, and H.Kh, 17.

The girls confessed to practicing prostitution, facilitated by J.Kh., F.N., D.T., and a fourth person who is still on the run.

H.Kh revealed during interrogation how she came to be a member of the ring.

She said she was engaged to a fellow Syrian back in her country.

"And then he brought her to Lebanon and 'sold her' for $3,000 to another person who forced her to work as a prostitute."

The ISF noted that J.Kh., F.N., D.T., R.H., and N.A are drug users and they were referred to the Anti-Drug Bureau.
