In a recent interview aired on Arise TV, a survivor of s*x trafficking, identified only as Lady X, recounted the harrowing details of her journey to Egypt under false pretenses. Her face was partially covered during the televised conversation for security reas ons.
Lady X revealed that her ordeal began when a friend introduced her to an Egyptian man who promised her a better life abroad. According to her, the man reached out to her family to gain their tr ust.
“He talked to my mum to be aware. He said I should not worry Egypt is a nice place,” she said, adding that the man assured them everything would be safe and arranged all her travel documents.
She arrived in Egypt on September 3rd. The man was at the airport to receive her, and she was taken to his home where he lived with his family and daughter. However, the very next morning, things took a dark turn.
“The next day in the morning, he seized my passpo rt,” Lady X disclosed.
Her story sheds light on the growing concern over trafficking networks luring young women under the guise of foreign job offers. Activists have called for stronger international collaboration and awareness to prevent further victimization of vulnerable individuals.
