Two women aged 37 and 39 were arrested on Sept 18 for their alleged involvement in vice-related activities.<\/p>\n
They were arrested during an enforcement operation at a massage establishment along Sims Avenue, the police said in a Facebook post on Monday (Sept 28).<\/p>\n
Officers from Geylang Neighbourhood Police Centre and Bedok Police Division’s compliance management unit were involved in the raid.<\/p>\n
The two women are believed to be involved in vice-related activities.<\/p>\n
The police also reminded members of the public not to engage in vice-related activities and to report any suspected vice-related activities to the police.<\/p>\n
Earlier in April, the police announced that they are ending licensing exemptions for massage establishments<\/a> as a new set of regulations<\/a> come into effect from the second half of this year.<\/p>\n This means that open-concept massage establishments \u2014 presently exempted from licensing \u2014 will soon need to comply with “fit and proper” requirements under a new “Category 3” licensing regime.<\/p>\n Category 1 licences are granted to those which operate in HDB shop houses, shopping centres and hotels, while Category 2 licences are given to those operating away from residential areas, schools and places of worship.<\/p>\n The requirements include ensuring that rooms, partitions or cubicles are not set up within the establishment, and obtaining land use approval from HDB and Urban Redevelopment Authority before the premises can be used as an open-concept massage establishment.<\/p>\n Minister for National Development Chee Hong Tat said at that time that he welcomed the move, adding that his ministry and its agencies are supportive of the new measures.<\/p>\n He pledged that HDB officers will work closely with the police to clamp down on errant establishments that do not comply with regulations and provide illicit services.<\/p>\n Chee also warned such operators that HDB has the authority to terminate the tenancies of those found to be complicit in vice-related activities.<\/p>\n [[nid:738667]]<\/p>\n editor@asiaone.com<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Two women aged 37 and 39 were arrested on Sept 18 for their alleged involvement in vice-related activities.
