Austrian news site Presse published a report about underage prostitution in Vienna. It may surprise most of the public, but the Hungarian children were in the focus.
The shocking fact is that there are kids among the prostituted children who have not even passed their twelfth year. The report claims that about fourth of the children are from Hungarian origins.
According to Borsonline , Austrian authorities have information about at least twenty young boys and girls who appear in the area of Prater time to time.
The children who make a living of prostitution usually come from the deeply poor layer: many of them are orphans who were taken by man traders. It is not unusual among them to be under twelve. This type of market is well organized. Ponces are careful to avoid police interference and observers are applied to keep their eyes open in the area. Many of the children do not even speak German at all, so they carry papers which inform customers about the prices.
The average fee varies between euros. The young prostitutes vanished for a while, only to return as the weather became favorable again.
