Officers from the Greek FBI conducted raids on Thursday afternoon in Athens, resulting in 12 arrests following their investigation of 6 brothels. Specifically, Greek FBI officers carried out inspections in the Athens area aimed at identifying victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation, where a total of 12 individuals were arrested (11 women and one man), charged with violating seal violations.
Additionally, 4 of those arrested were found to lack legal residency documents in the country, a fact that further aggravates the case file.
