Nghe An: Dismantling prostitution ring of students and long-legged girls

(Baonghean.vn) - The prostitutes are long-legged girls, university and college students in Vinh City. Each time they "go out with a client", they are paid 2 million VND, then give 30% back to the "madam".

On November 29, the Criminal Police Department (PC45, Nghe An Police) announced that the unit, in coordination with C45 of the Ministry of Public Security, had successfully broken up Project 117M, destroying a prostitution ring with the participation of long-legged girls and university and college students in Vinh City.

Previously, on the evening of November 23, PC45 detectives raided two rooms of Dat Phu Hotel (Hung Dung Ward, Vinh City) and Victory Hotel (Vinh City) and caught two couples in the act of prostitution.

The identities of the two prostitutes were clarified as Tran Thi N. (born in 1998, residing in Dien Chau) and Thai Thi Y. (born in 1993, residing in Anh Son district). N. is a first-year student at a local college, having just enrolled for 3 months. Y. already has a stable job and participates in prostitution to “increase income”.

At the investigation agency, Tran Thi N. and Thai Thi Y. confessed to participating in a prostitution ring run by Ha Thi Giang (born in 1995, residing in Nam Dan district). The investigation agency of Nghe An province police issued an emergency arrest warrant for Giang to serve the investigation.

At the investigation agency, Ha Thi Giang admitted that she had directly brokered the price agreement with the customers through her phone number and zalo. After agreeing on the price and location, Giang informed the prostitutes to come serve the customers.

The price for these girls to serve customers ranges from around 2 million VND, which is then divided among Giang at a ratio of 30% - 70%.

However, an investigator revealed that the amount Giang charged customers for sex was often more than double the amount reported to prostitutes.

Currently, PC45 Nghe An Provincial Police is completing the case file and prosecuting Ha Thi Giang to investigate the act of “Prostitution Brokerage”. Giang is raising a child under 36 months old, so she is not subject to temporary detention.

The police investigation agency administratively fined two customers 750 thousand VND each. Thai Thi Y. and Tran Thi N. were also administratively fined 200 thousand VND each for prostitution.
