Dozens of sex workers to be quizzed as part of investigation into crime group operating in Ireland

Up to 850 women are advertised daily on Ireland’s main platform for the sex industry.

Dozens of women who worked in the Irish sex industry are expected to be interviewed as witnesses in a probe into an organised crime group suspected of running a prostitution operation in Ireland.

Women who worked for the organisation operated across the country, including during the pandemic. It is understood that the operation targeted rural towns including Killarney, Tralee, Carlow, Maynooth, Athlone, and Wexford, as well as Cork, Limerick, Dublin, Galway, and Kilkenny.
