Justice has demanded three years in prison against 21-year-old rapper Jay Zakelijk of Roermond for human trafficking and sexual abuse of a teenage girl. He allegedly forced his victims into prostitution and blackmailed them.
The rapper, whose real name is Jusitin P., remained silent during the trial yesterday at the court in Maastricht. This in part because he said he felt "uncomfortable" about it. Statements made to the criminal investigation department show that P. had the women work as prostitutes in brothels in our country, Belgium and Germany.
The money they earned from this, the women had to give to their 'loverboy' Justin P. He also put piquant photos of one of his victims on the Internet and some had to get a tattoo with his name.
Françoise Landerloo, attorney for Jay Business: "Client may have taken advantage of his ex-girlfriends' naiveté, but did not exercise coercion and therefore was not guilty of human trafficking."
