JOHOR BARU - USING bomoh services as a front, a man provided sexual services instead of traditional healing services.
The Indonesian's operations were uncovered when enforcement officers from the state Immigration Department here raided his house in Taman Tun Ungku Aminah on Wednesday.
During the raid at 5.40pm, the officers discovered three rooms in the house that had been converted for sexual activities between customers and sex workers, believed to be Indonesians. 'Each customer is charged RM100 (S$42) per session and we believe the medium has been running the sex services for more than a year,' said state Immigration Department deputy assistant director (II) Amzari A Jalil.
He said the house, which is behind a Chinese temple, was secluded and only regular customers were familiar with the place. Mr Amzari said prior to the raid, his officers went undercover under Ops Sayang to investigate vice activities in the area.
He added that they arrested the 40-year-old medium and two sex workers aged 27 and 30. Another sex worker managed to escape. During the same operation, the department raided an illegal karaoke centre here and detained nine Indonesians and a Filipino aged between 25 and 40, believed to be sex workers.
The department also detained a 62-year-old local man for trying to prevent department officers from carrying out their duties. He said the centre, located near a shopping complex on the Skudai highway, was also believed to be a gambling den.
