Eurojust coordinated an international investigation into a human trafficking ring accused of sexually exploiting young women across Europe, led by German and Romanian authorities. Investigators say the group allegedly used the “lover boy” method to lure victims and then moved them to Germany and other EU Member States for sexual exploitation. Around 30 victims have been identified so far. An action day on 5 November led to the apprehension of 15 people in Romania, as part of the wider operation coordinated by Eurojust. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue to work across borders.
