its quite disturbing and scary to see the news about raid.
Is there a real legal problem punting other agencies like Diva , if the lady stays alone and doesnt have a shared accomodation.
and any risks of punting outcalls ? that way, is there a lesser chance of raids etc.
on that note , from this: External Link/Members Only
it appears that the maximum sentence if you are caught buying sex ( using the services of a prostitue who is subject to force) is a fine of 1000. any thoughts about this people ?
Unless you have seen her before, how are you going to know in advance whether a girl is sharing accommodation or not? However, even if she is sharing, it is only the person running the shared accommodation aka brothel that it is breaking the law - not the girls or the punters. The authorities have long turned a blind eye to sharing, unless they need to take action and don't have sufficient evidence to charge for something more serious (a bit like Al Capone was done for tax fraud). After all, it is safer for the girls to be sharing, than working alone.
A long while ago (in the Polish heyday), I was once visiting an agency girl who shared with another. In mid-visit, the police called. We stayed quiet as a mouse in the bedroom, while the police interviewed the other girl. Once they had established that she was safe and happy, and not being forced, they were soon on their way again.
It is trafficking that is the big issue. TBH, if you are worried about it, I think you are best off sticking with a reputable agency. With indies, you never know whether she is being coerced or not until you get to know her very well. Olina seem to be back in business, which I doubt would be the case if they were being done for trafficking, but if you are worried, there are other long-standing asian agencies using many of the same girls.
If a girl is working for multiple unconnected agencies, she is unlikely to have been trafficked by an agency (but not impossible that she has a "handler" behind the scenes). My personal feeling is that trafficking is more likely at the cheaper end of the market. There are a number of outfits offering outcalls for under £200 an hour in central London, that I would be decidedly concerned about, for example.
Outcalls come with their own problems. After a couple of bad experiences, I will never again have an outcall to my home. At least with an incall, if your senses tell you that something is wrong, you can turn on your heel.
