Prostitution: S'pore civil servants quizzed
The Singapore police are investigating an online prostitution ring, with a former principal of a popular school among scores of men said to have been hauled up for questioning.
The principal, who is said to be 39 years old and married, resigned from the education service unexpectedly last December.
Several other public servants are also believed to be helping with the investigations. They are said to be from other government agencies.
A scholarship recipient is believed to be among them, Chinese daily Lianhe Wanbao reported.
How Vice Rings Operate Online:
The women hail from countries such as Thailand, China and South Korea, and answer to names like 'Fonza', 'Snowy' and 'Salad'.
Photographs of them in revealing clothes are posted online, along with their age, height, weight, vital statistics and the rates they charge - from S$80 (RM192) to about S$300 (RM720) - for different sexual acts.
Websites advertising sexual services from women have proliferated across the Causeway in recent years.
