Switzerland: Bad Press

The latest news in the French speaking part of Switzerland give a really bad light on Rroma: A human trafficker – bringing in beggars and prostitutes to Switzerland was condemned. To ne noted the trafficker does not seem to be a Rrom, something that will be probably lost on the readers.
In another story, child weddings are being celebrated in Switzerland too. And of course, Rroma are also cited.
In another of those stories, four young Rroma are in court for the rape of a minor Swiss girl near Lausanne.
Overall, what a picture this gives of Rroma … Even though there are 80-100’000 well integrated Rroma in the country.
