Depilata e con il rossetto sulle labbra Pony veniva offerta ai clienti di un bordello indonesiano. Una veterinaria spagnola racconta la storia all'Ansa. Il caso non è isolato: la pratica è diffusa soprattutto in Thailandia

Pony era stata completamente depilata, lavata, profumata e le avevano dipinto le labbra col rossetto. E poi l'avevano incatenata al letto, per poter consentire ai frequentatori del bordello di un villaggio del Borneo indonesiano di godere il piacere perverso di un accoppiamento con una grande femmina di orangutan. Questa storia terribile è raccontata all'Ansa dalla veterinaria spagnola che partecipò al salvataggio e ha ora offerto una nuova vita a Pony, Karmele Llano, 27 anni, di Bilbao. E la giovane basca assicura che il caso non è isolato e la pratica di prostituire gli oraguntan è diffusa soprattutto in Thailandia.

Karmele – che ritornerà presto nel Borneo (isola divisa tra Indonesia e Malesia) per continuare la sua missione di salvataggio degli orangutan – racconta come incontrò Pony, una femmina che ha oggi 12 anni, nella località di Keremgpangi nel Borneo centrale. Era incatenata ad un letto mentre lavoratori delle imprese di legname e piantagioni di olio di palma facevano la fila per abusare di lei. «Quando tentammo di liberarla, ci fu una rivolta, ci minacciarono con coltelli e machete – ricorda Karmele – dovemmo ricorrere alla polizia di stato che inviò una trentina di agenti per portar via Pony». «La trasferimmo al nostro centro di riabilitazione di Nyaru Menteng, dove concentriamo gli orangutan bisognosi di cure o che recuperiamo dalle persone che le usano come mascotte», spiega Karmele. Nel centro, gestito dalla Borneo Orangutan Survival (Bos), vivono 400 primati, la maggior parte giovanissimi. Il centro, dove lavora Karmele, dispone di una clinica, una scuola per baby orangutan e grandi gabbie dove gli animali adulti ricominciano un'esistenza normale.

Dopo un periodo al centro Pony è stata trasferita lo scorso anno nell'isola fluviale di Bangamat dove vive tuttora insieme ad altri sei orangutan. Bangamat è una delle tre isole utilizzate per dare una nuova vita alle grandi scimmie, in attesa di una futura liberazione in una zona protetta, e dove vivono attualmente una settantina di orangutan. «Il caso Pony non è isolato – assicura Karmele – Sappiamo che in Thailandia è frequente che bordelli utilizzino femmine di orangutan come divertimento sessuale per i clienti, o esibiscano gli animali nei circhi o per spettacoli di boxe».

La notizia di queste "schiave sessuali", divenute tali dopo essere state catturate piccolissime dai trafficanti dopo averne ucciso le madri, è confermata anche da Matilde de Figueroa portavoce della Fondazione Altarriba che si occupa della protezione e difesa di tutti gli animali. «Mi risulta che in Thailandia l'utilizzo degli orangutan nei postriboli non sia un fatto isolato», dice all'Ansa. E alla denuncia si associa Pedro Pozas, segretario generale del "Progetto Grande Scimmia" che ha portato recentemente in parlamento, con il sostegno del Partito socialista, un progetto (ma per ora non una legge) per coinvolgere la Spagna nella lotta per i diritti di questi mammiferi tanto simili all'uomo.

Pozas assicura che contro questi abusi servirà il progetto che si conta di presentare anche al Parlamento Europeo e infine trasformare in legge in Spagna. «Arriveremo, ne sono convinto, a dare alle grandi scimmie il diritto alla vita, alla libertà e a non essere torturate». Gli orangutan contrariamente alle altre grandi scimmie africane (scimpanzé, gorilla, bonobo), vivono solo in Asia, a Sumatra e nel Borneo. E ne sono rimasti, secondo la Orangutan Conservancy americana appena 20.000 e potrebbero essere estinti in 10 anni. Questo grande mammifero arboreo condivide con l'uomo il 97% del patrimonio genetico. Il suo nome in malese significa "popolo della foresta" e in passato la popolazione locale lo rispettava considerandolo una persona che si nascondeva sugli alberi per non lavorare o non esser fatto schiavo. Oltre che in Thailandia gli orangutan sono importati in altri paesi d'Asia e in particolare a Taiwan dove vengono usati soprattutto come animali da compagnia. Secondo un rapporto della Orangutan Foundation questa è una delle più serie minacce alla loro sopravvivenza alimentando il grande traffico illegale. Un traffico che arriva, malgrado i controlli, fino in Europa al termine di una rotta che passa per il Medio Oriente.

Ma il vero grande pericolo per la sopravvivenza degli orangutan è la distruzione delle foreste dove vivono, ora soprattutto a causa dell'avanzare delle piantagioni di Olio di Palma, prodotto usato nel settore alimentare e cosmetico. Piantagioni per creare le quali si uccidono le scimmie e si
distrugge la foresta, loro unico habitat" dice Karmele che vuol ora creare un centro di recupero anche per i macachi e i nitticebi della Sonda, primati che non godono di alcuna protezione in Indonesia.

WHAT????????????????????????????????

Karin B. (328) 		Tuesday May 23, 2006, 5:31 am
Exactly what you read: the Orang Utan lady was shaved, got sweet red lips and was bound to a bed in order to allow pervert sadists to have sex with her. Then she was rescued but apparently these things happen often in Thailand-at least according to the article...
Outrageous, I'm still flaming

Karin this makes me want to cry for any creature that is used against its will!! I just had some horrible thoughts about what I wish would happen to people that do this!!

Karin B. (328) 		Tuesday May 23, 2006, 11:59 pm
I would put those guys in a vivisection lab-on the desk there. The medicine would progress, the abusers would be out of the way (and useful at least), others would think twice before abusing (knowing what piniushment they'd have to face) and our innocent furry and feathered friends woukld stop suffering for human curiosity paired with sadism...

Orang Utans prostituted in Asiatic Pleasuredomes

Dehaired and with red lips she was bound to a bed to please costumers. It seems this practice is quite used in Thailand
A spanish vet tells her tale to the Ansa (italian newspaper connection)




Written by GIULIO GELIBTER

Pony has been totally shaved, washed, scented with perfume and her lips wre painted with lipstick. Then she was chained to a bed in order to allow the visitors of a pleasuredome in a village in indonesian Borneo to abuse on her, enjoying the pervert pleasure of having sex with a female Orang Utan. This horrible tale is told by a Spanish vet who helped to rescue Pony, the Orang Utan Lady, and has now offered that poor animal a new life. Karmele Llano, 27 years, coming from Bilbao. The young Basque says that this is not an isolated case-this practice is diffonded expecially in Thailand.

Karmele – who will soon get back to Borneo (an isle divided between Indonesia and Malaysia) in order to continue her mission to rescue Orang Utans. She tells how she met Pony, a female who is now aged 12 years, in a place called Keremgpangi in central Borneo. She was chained to a bed while workers of the wood factories and palm oil plantages were standing in a row to abuse Pony. «When we tried to free her there was a revolution, they tried to scare us with knives and machetes – remembers Karmele – we had to call state’s police who sent about 30 agents in order to enable us to carry Pony away». «We took her to our rehabilitation Centre in Nyaru Menteng, where we concentrate the Orang Utans in need of help (vet cure ore taken from people who use the mas mascottes)», explains Karmele. In this Centre, which is run by the Borneo Orangutan Survival (Bos), live aproximately 400 primates, most of them very young. The centre where Karmele works, has a clinic, a school for baby orangutans and big cages where the adult primates start a normal existance.

After a certain time in this centre Pony was transferred last year in the river isle of Bangamat where she still lives with 6 other orangutans. Bangamat is one of the three isle utilized t ogive those apes a new life, awaiting a future liberation in a protected zone, and where actually reside aproximately 70 orangutans. «Pony’s case is not an isolated one – assures Karmele – We know that in Thailand pleasurdomes often and usually use female Orang Utans as sexual pleasure for costumers, or that they exhibit animals in circusses or for box shows».

The new of these "sexual slaves", become “prostitutes” after having been captured very young, their mothers being killed, is also confirmed by Matilde de Figueroa voice of the Altarriba Foundation which operates in defense of all animals. «I’ve learned that the fact of using Orang Utans in Thai bordellos is nothing unusual», she tells Ansa. And also Pedro Pozas, general secretary of the "Project big ape" denounces this issue. The Project has recently brought to Parliament, sponsored by the socialist party, a project (not a law right now) to involve Spain in the struggle for the rights of these mammals so similar to menkind.

Pozas assurse that against these abuses we will need a project that will also be presented to European Parliament and also become finally (we hope) law in Spain. «We will succede, I believe this firmly, in giving the great apes the right to life, freedom and of not being tortured». Unlike other great African apes (chimpances, gorillas, bonobos), the orangutans live only in Asia, in Sumatra and in Borneo. And there are left only 20.000, accordino to the american Orangutan Conservancy, and these might be extincted within 10 years. This big mammal condivides with mankind 97% of the genetic patrimony. In Malysian its name means “people of the forest” and in past time the locals respected them and considered them to be persons living and hiding in trees in order not to become slaves or being forced to work. In Thailand and other places in Asia, particularly in Taiwan, the Orang Utans are important and used as companion animals. According to a report of the Orangutan Foundation this is one of the great dangers for their surviving because it aliments the illegal traffic around them. A traffic leading to Europe as well, in spite of controls, through a route passing through Middle East.

”But the greatest peril for their surviving is the distruction of the forests they live in, nowadays expecially for the spreading of the palm oil plantages, a product used expecially for alimentary and cosmetic sector. Plantages for which apes ae killed and forests (their only habitat) destroyed” says Karmele who wants to create a recovering center also for macacos and nitticebos of the Sonda, primates who are protected in no way in Indonesia.

I wish all of you sick SOBS would rot in HELL.how in the F%%%K cold anyone do this.

Karin B. (328) 		Tuesday May 30, 2006, 12:20 am
Unfortunately it's not even an isolated case-apparently these things happen quite frequently.
We have to show pubblic disagreement and disgust-hoping it will bring the authorities to stop this insanity. If someone has an other idea-please share! Abuse and violation are horryfying in each case, be it a woman, an animal, a child-and somebody chained to a bed without asking for is a victim of abuse and violation. What's happening to mankind? Aren't they man enough to make a woman fall in love? Do they need to force somebody? What about chemical castration? Could resolve their problem, I guess

Penny Lynn D. (119) 		Tuesday May 30, 2006, 12:35 am
Hi, thanks, Karin, I actually saw the FILM of this, on FSTV, about a year ago, I think it was an Australian news station, that airs regularly, where I saw this, and I was absolutely disgusted, I am glad that this is not a closed issue, as it goes on and on...so sad, and hard to believe..

Karin B. (328) 		Tuesday May 30, 2006, 1:00 am
They even FILMED it?

Adriana G. (251) 		Tuesday May 30, 2006, 8:34 am
That makes me so mad!!!! I cant believe it!! sick people.. what can we do to help the orangutans??

Karin B. (328) 		Tuesday May 30, 2006, 10:23 am
I guess public disagreement should move the authorities to try saving their butts.
At least I hope so, if someone has a better idea please share!
