Czechs may ban brothels from school, cemetery areas
Jul 4, 2005
Prague - Brothels will no longer be allowed to operate near schools, churches or cemeteries in the Czech Republic under a proposal being considered by the government, the Mlada fronta Dnes newspaper reported Monday.
Interior Minister Frantisek Bublan's proposal, which reportedly has wide political support, also would require health checks and the registering of the nation's estimated 25,000 prostitutes.
Similar efforts to regulate the country's huge and legal flesh trade have fizzled in the past. A recent government report said the nation's prostitutes and pimps earn about 1 million dollars a day.
Under Bublan's plan, Czech communities could designate red-light districts but could not allow brothels to operate near schools, playgrounds, churches or graveyards.
In addition, street-walkers who wave at passing motorists could no longer ply their wares near school bus stops.
The proposal was welcomed by the mayor of Dubi, Ilona Smitkova, whose Czech-German border town is a notorious haunt of German sex tourists.
"We would welcome moving the night clubs... that today stand between family homes," she said.
