Prostitution law reform is a worldwide phenomenon. The law reforms have been encouraged by the global panic and stigma associated with and around sex work and trafficking. Policy making camps also find themselves divided on the best way to protect sex workers rights. While some favor the criminalisation of clients, which sex-worker led organizations disagree because according to them banning the practice will push the sex workers to even more danger. Instead they advocate the decriminalization of sex workers.
Prostitution in Bangladesh is a much older phenomenon dating back to 200 years. It is also one of the few Muslim countries where prostitution was legalized and recognised by the State in 2000, after the yearlong detention of 100 sex workers which sparked protests calling for protection of women’s freedom and equal rights. The fight heralded a new legal framework but with poor administration and implementation it ended up in corruptive practices resulting in violation of women’s rights.
Though prostitution is legal, forced labor, sex trafficking, child prostitution is not, but in a country with poor law and order, traffickers act without any fear. Official estimates state that 100,000 women and girls are into this industry but one study reports that less than 10% of those have entered voluntarily. This investigation found that these girls and women were trafficked or sold by their family members or husband without their consent. Across the country one in five girls are married off when they get their first period i.e. at the age of 11 or 12. Dhaka Tribune reported that the conviction rate of those arrested due trafficking is less than half a percent, and since 2013, out of the 6000 arrested due to trafficking only 25 were convicted. Complete education and consent are luxuries only a few can afford.
