A man and woman from Doncaster have been convicted for trafficking a vulnerable woman into the country and forcing her into prostitution. Gheorghe Bonculescu, 27, arranged for the woman's travel to the UK and sold her for sex online, earning him a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence for controlling prostitution. Meanwhile, 26-year-old Elena Birovescu deposited cash into her bank account over seven months, transferring it to Bonculescu for financial gain. Birovescu received a six-month suspended sentence for money laundering. Detective Sergeant Richard Kirk praised the victim's bravery and condemned the perpetrators as predators who exploited her vulnerability for profit. Authorities remain committed to combating sexual exploitation and ensuring the safety of victims.
