Ploiesti, in Prahova region, where the gang found young women to traffic.
A Romanian gangster who trafficked women to Scotland to work in a £500,000-a-year prostitution ring has been jailed for more than four years in his home country, we can reveal.
Vasile Radu was the ringleader of an international trafficking operation moving victims from poverty blackspots in the Prahova region of the country to flats in the east end of Glasgow.
The gang thought they could earn more money here than in their homeland and that they could evade justice by flitting between different countries. However, their operation was dismantled after a wave of raids co-ordinated by Police Scotland and Romania’s Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism in Glasgow’s Dennistoun and Haghill areas in 2016.
