The accused woman has been charged with slavery, perverting the course of justice and offences under the federal Migration Act.

They include allowing an unlawful non-citizen to work in conditions of exploitation and allowing a non-citizen to work in breach of a visa condition. The allegations relate to two Thai women, who cannot be named, who travelled to Australia on tourist visas in 2007 knowingly to work as prostitutes.
