I'm right now in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates and despite this country being an Islamic nation, prostitution and human slavery racket is a stark reality - compelling stories of misery that will fill your heart with pain which puts places like Bangkok and Amsterdam far behind.
Last night saw something terrible, I was in a famous nightclub outside Radisson hotel - as the late hour ticked in - all patrons were asked to leave as some Sheiks with some burqa-clad women (they seemed to be MEN because of their tall heights) stepped in - however, it wasn't strictly enforced and some of us stayed back and nobody seemed to mind.
At around 2 AM, there was a lot of noise and commotion inside. I felt the urge to take a peep, and what I saw was a modern day version of Slavery - several young and underaged girls and some big women were being paraded almost naked in what seemed like an "auction" and there was a huge crowd inside (some 200 men) who were like groping and inspecting the cartel
