The Police have arrested two men and two women, aged between 26 and 33, for offences under the Women’s Charter, during an enforcement operation against vice activities conducted from 22 to 23 July 2018.
During the operation, officers from Central Police Division conducted a series of raids along Temple Street, resulting in the arrests. Preliminary investigations revealed that the women had advertised their sexual services online and operated from hotels along Temple Street while the two men were believed to be managing them.
Investigations are ongoing.
