The spokesman of the President of IU in the Region, Esther Herguedas, today denounced the "hypocrisy" of municipal ordinances provide for fines to people who engage in prostitution because in his view, "aimed at the immorality but not sexual exploitation ".
According Herguedas these ordinances "do drop weight of the law on the weakest link in the chain, the prostitutes, while protecting those most responsible for this form of exploitation, pimps and customers and business misnamed sex" .
He indicated that prostitution is one of the faces of gender violence with which it must have zero tolerance, "and has proposed that municipalities develop, along with women's associations, plans of action to promote the eradication of sexual exploitation.
Noted here that these plans could also include the development of ordinances that regulate rather than fight the exploitation of prostitution, in order to address a legislative framework "more consistent, equitable and just."
