Prostitution ring offering credit to customers, say cops

Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said pimps also used social media, including WeChat, to lure customers.

State police chief Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said 12 men and a local woman, aged 31 to 63 years, were detained. They are suspected to be the organisers of the prostitution ring. “The prostitution syndicate operated for 24 hours a day, seven days a week and was said to have imposed payments of between RM190 and RM650 depending on the package offered,” he told a media conference at the Johor police contingent headquarters, today.

“The syndicate was also found to be providing 555 notebooks to enable the clients to forego payment to secure a prostitute’s service and settle it later. Most of the clients were foreign nationals and the activities increased on weekends,” he said.
