Iraqi Prostitution in Syria

I do appreciate the fact that the main concern is that there may be some underage girls involved or women coerced into this situation. While one mother did express grief at her daughters working as strippers or prostitutes, overall the concern was with any possible trafficking or coercion. Forced work of any kind is horrible but it could be a hell of a lot worse. A possibility exists for freedom.
Of course, I wonder if we will hear about the exiled Iraqis that didn't get so lucky. The ones that may find themselves literally enslaved and literally closed off from public views; ones that may have been forced into domestic servitude where they may never leave the actual house and none of us out here in the world know their fate.
