"Leeds Police are issuing leaflets to local residents in Chapeltown in the coming weeks, asking them to act as their eyes and ears to protect the area from anti social behaviour. In March, a 31-year-old woman was issued with the first Anti-Social Behaviour Order (ASBO) for prostitution resulting from a criminal case in Leeds, after being found guilty of loitering for the purposes of prostitution, which is believed to have caused harrassment, alarm and distress to local people.
