Sexual slavery in the Middle East

Wikipedia has it wrong:

In the contemporary Middle East, sexual slavery is uncommon. However, transportation and trafficking of these women does exist there. Iran, Israel, and Turkey have a significant sex trade-much of it involving women from Eastern Europe and poor areas of Northern India.

Sexual slavery is very common in the Middle East as this site proves, especially if we go by their own definition of sexual slavery which includes “forced prostitution.”

Secondly, the majority of it does not involve Eastern European women or “poor areas of Northern India” (how vague is that?), but rather from places such as Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and quite recently Iraq and Iran. Moreover, Dubai has one of the worst cases of forced prostitution (and migrant rights abuses in general.)
