They are threatened, oppressed and forced to offer sex for money. Money goes to overlords whom they call madams. The girls end up in brothels in Asafo BB, a suburb of Kumasi.
The two-member delegation are in the metropolis to assess the situation and with the help of the police, rescue the girls from the various brothels and processed them for possible repatriation.
They are currently at the headquarters of the Ashanti regional police command holding a meeting with the Police Commander DCOP Kenneth Yeboah and other police officers.
