Russian speaking Toronto Police Officer Makes Plea to victims of human trafficking ring to contact 52 Division Toronto Police Service Vice Squad Detective Sergeant Mike Ervick at 416-808-5206 or Toronto Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-8477 (TIPS) or online at www.222tips.com . The police want to help other victims escape the ring.

On Thursday January 10, 2008 a woman of Eastern Eurpean origin attended the downtown Toronto Police Service station #52 reporting that she had been lured to Canada under the pretext of working as a model.

A number of women were brought into Canada with false passports. Once they were arrived they were forcibly confined and told they would be working as escorts, performing prostitution related activities for the leaders of this illegal operation.

An investigation was commenced by police officers from 52 Division Vice Unit and Community Response Unit, in cooperation with the York Regional Police Service.

Search warrants executed resulted in the arrest of six suspects. Three of the arrested parties were charged with numerous Criminal Code offences. Artur Boris Tomchin, 35yrs of Toronto, Andrei Khazarov, 39yrs of Thornhill and Daniel Leshinsky, 38yrs of Thornhill are all charged.

Further investigation resulted in 52 Division officers, in cooperation with Immigration Canada, resulted in another female victim be rescued, and Volha Vassilievna Venar, 35yrs of Toronto being arrested and charged.

This video is a plea for further victims to come forward to police, regardless of your status in Canada, to be rescued from this human trafficking ring.

  • He is saying : The CANADIAN GOVERMENT taxes Men Women and Childrens labours and also taxes there needs for basic items.Rent Food Clothing etc...

    and That The ICESCR and Universal declaration of Human Rights are Violated by the Goverments in CANADA.

    Even The CANADIAN CONSTITUTION is pissed on by a Defacto Goverment that is illegal and Has no Lawfull authority...

  • Toronto Police should shut down / raid the asian strip clubs. They are holding Sex Trade Slaves! Try the Asian strip club downtown Toronto. Thai woman sex slaves!!!!!!!!!!

  • If you want to find people why they dont start in the local newspapers like NOW, EYE WEEKLY, in the last sections you see, not only russian women offering sexual services, also asians, I think at least the 80% of them are illeagal in Canada and working for the mobs.
