Previously on the day14/5/2017, The Criminal Police Department of the Provincial Police discovered and caught red-handed at Dinh Thi Thuy's motel, in rooms 1, 2, 4 and room 6 of the motel, 4 couples of men and women were engaged in prostitution. The authorities made a record and brought the subjects to the agency to work.

This is a sophisticated prostitution ring, the owner is usually wary of the authorities. The people are upset but do not dare to report it for fear of retaliation.

Furthermore, the subject did not record specific activities, the money transfer was not done directly but the customer could pay later to the brothel owner. On the other hand, the prostitutes here were also afraid and ashamed so they did not dare to publicly denounce the behavior of the motel owner.

After catching four couples in the act of prostitution at Dinh Thi Thuy's boarding house, Thuy, despite being the owner and the prostitute, still denied her crime. To consolidate the documents, on May 15, the provincial police department issued an arrest warrant and an emergency search of Thuy.

At the investigation agency, Dinh Thi Thuy confessed to all her actions. Accordingly, Dinh Thi Thuy built 13 small rooms behind the house in the style of a motel. However, instead of renting them out to guests, Thuy regularly fed and housed 8 to 10 girls who were ready to sell sex to guests when needed.

Whenever there was a customer buying sex, Thuy collected 200,000 VND from each customer for one session, then paid the prostitute 100,000 VND, and kept the rest.

The case is currently under further investigation by the authorities.
