Roseville, California — An American Christian group that rescues child sex slaves has been ordered to close after Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen found a recent CNN report on the ministry “insulting,” according to The Christian Post.
CNN interviewed three girls who had been rescued by Agape International Missions (AIM) after their impoverished mothers sold them into slavery.
AIM is based out of California and has been working in Cambodia since 1988 as a humanitarian aid and church planting organization. Its focus shifted in 2005 to ending child sexual slavery.
The CNN report, “Life after trafficking: The Cambodian girls sold for sex by their mothers,” was broadcast July 25, the Post reported.
Sen was quoted by various news sources as saying, “This is a serious insult. … We cannot accept this big insult and we are going to close the NGO (nongovernmental organization) involved.” (TAB)
