Foreign Paedophiles Prey upon Indian Children

India has become one of the hottest child sex tourism destinations. A report, ‘Trafficking in Women and Children in India’, sponsored by a statutory body, National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), highlights this, mentionining not just Goa, which since the 1990s has uncovered rackets by Freddy Peats and Helmut Brinkmann, but also Alleppy and Ernakulam districts of Kerala province, where houseboat tourism has lately seen a boon. The NHRC report says the problem of child sex tourism in India is compounded as there is a ‘silence of the community and an unwillingness to speak out’ on this matter.
