Human trafficking: Kantharalak karaoke club raided following charges of child prostitution

[webfact]

 

At 10.10pm yesterday, an infamous karaoke club, located in the Nong Ya Lad district of Kantharalak, Sisaket was raided by Siriwit Chan Techasitkul, the head of Human Trafficking Case Management at the Department of Special Investigation (DSI), joined by Surachai Tumwong, protector of Srisaket Province, Narin Bupta, station chief of Kantharalak police station, and social and human security development officials of Sisaket province.

 

They were collectively working to crack down on human trafficking, particularly for the purpose of making a profit out of child prostitution involving those less than 18 years old. Investigations had revealed that one such karaoke outlet was exploiting minors under 18 for sex trafficking.

 

Siriwit explained that officials had cooperated to inspect potentially risky service establishments, locating and arresting two suspects, a mother-daughter duo, known as A and B (fake names).

 

This pair ran a karaoke establishment selling food and beverages, where they brought in young women to service the customers. This provision involved drinks, allowing them to cuddle, kiss, touch, and even engage in prostitution, including offering girls aged under 18 to sleep with customers.
