Gardaí urge victims of sex-for-rent scandal to come forward

The sex-for-rent scandal has been publicised at length in the 'Irish Examiner' and resulted in legislation going through the Oireachtas to make it an offence.

Gardaí have urged people affected by the ‘sex for rent’ scandal to make a complaint to their local station.

Detectives have said that while ‘sex for rent’ is not a specific criminal offence, an investigation into it could reveal potential crimes, including possible fraud-related offences or offences against the person.
