PALANGKA RAYA - Central Kalimantan Regional Police (Polda) uncovered eight cases of criminal trafficking in persons (TPPO) in the local province.
The Head of Public Relations of the Central Kalimantan Police, Kombes Erlan Munaji, said that of the eight cases, 10 of them had been named as suspects in the TIP case.
"Eight of these cases are in Palangka Raya City with three cases, West Kotawaringin Regency with one case, Lamandau with one case, Seruyan with one case, and East Kotawaringin with two cases," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 5.
He said the TIP action was a form of Polri's commitment to eradicating the crime of prostitution.
On average, the alleged perpetrators, he said, used the mode by providing work lure to their victims.
"But after arriving at the scene, the victim was ordered to serve a masher with a fare ranging from Rp. 300 thousand to Rp. 2.5 million. There are also those who transact through adult applications and transact through the WhatsApp application," he said.
Erlan revealed that the Central Kalimantan Regional Police continues to develop the case so that it can suppress similar crimes.
For this reason, he said, the police appealed to the entire community not to easily believe in the lure of work with a large salary.
