Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Okinawa Governor Denny Tamaki said, “It is very deplorable. We’ll strongly urge the U.S. military to take measures that would be effective to prevent a similar incident.”

The pimps colluded with government officials and the police, who turned a blind eye and failed to investigate such crimes as murder, assault and confinement by U.S. soldiers, according to the plaintiffs.

“We were abandoned in this country where we were born … Even though I was a teenager, no adult helped me … I was so scared and hated this that when I ran away and asked for help, my whereabouts were told to pimps who beat me and sold me elsewhere after raising my debt,” one of the plaintiffs told the court.

Ahn-Kim told Xinhua that the plaintiffs would bring their cases to the United States, calling the legal victory over the South Korean government a “small gift” to compensate the surviving victims for their longstanding suffering.

While preparing for the legal fight in the United States, the Solidarity has submitted a report on the issue of camp town sex workers to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women, the co-head said.

“We are now planning to bring up that issue to the UN Human Rights Council to hold the United States accountable,” she added. (Video reporters: Chen Yi, Yoo Seungki, Jin Haomin, Yang Chang; Video editor: Wu Yao, Hui Peipei, Shi Peng).
