arrested in an operation targeting a cross-border prostitution syndicate believed to have offered prostitution services to customers in Singapore.<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">Bernama quoted Bukit Aman criminal investigation department (CID) director M Kumar as saying that the operation, codenamed Op Noda-Rentas Sempadan, was jointly conducted with the Singapore police force (SPF) at several residential premises in Kuala Lumpur and Johor yesterday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">He said nine suspects \u2013 a Malaysian and eight foreigners aged between 29 and 56 \u2013 were arrested in raids conducted by Bukit Aman CID and the Johor police.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">The eight foreigners comprised seven Chinese nationals and a Singaporean. Preliminary investigations indicated that all nine were syndicate members wanted by the SPF.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">The Singaporean and four of the Chinese nationals were also found to have overstayed in Malaysia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">In the same operation, police arrested another 21 foreigners aged between 19 and 41 \u2013 five men and 16 women \u2013 on suspicion of promoting and managing online prostitution services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">They comprised 17 Chinese nationals, three Vietnamese nationals and one Laotian. Police also seized electronic devices believed to have been used to manage the online prostitution services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">Kumar said the syndicate was believed to have been operating in Singapore since 2024, using Malaysia as its base to manage two websites offering prostitution services in the republic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"py-1.5 mb-4 text-lg\">The syndicate likely used Malaysia as an operational hub to evade enforcement action, he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freemalaysiatoday.com\/category\/nation\/2026\/10\/21\/30-nabbed-in-m-sia-s-pore-prostitution-syndicate-crackdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bukit Aman CID director M Kumar said the syndicate is believed to have been operating in Singapore since 2024, using Malaysia as its base to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":94636,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2611],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-94635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buzz-headlines","wpcat-2611-id"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=94635"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94635\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/94636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=94635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=94635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=94635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
