JAKARTA - The Nagan Raya Police, Aceh has succeeded in uncovering an alleged case of online prostitution. From this case the police arrested a woman with the initials ZI (24).

ZI, who is also a resident of Blang Teungoh Village, is suspected of being a pimp. He is suspected of trafficking a number of women through social media. This case was uncovered based on reports from the public.

"Reported ZI was arrested after the alleged online prostitution case was reported by the public to the police," said Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the Nagan Raya Police, AKP Machfud in Suka Makmue, as reported by Antara, Sunday, July 18.

From the hands of the perpetrators, the police secured a number of pieces of evidence. Among other things, a smartphone unit, a screenshot of an Instagram account with the account name Z***06, a screenshot of Facebook with the account name Z.

Not only that, the police confiscated cash amounting to Rp900 thousand rupiah, allegedly money from prostitution services.

To investigators, ZI admitted that he had been a pimp or intermediary for sexual services since 2020 through social media Whatsapp, Instragam, and Facebook.

The way the perpetrator offered a young woman to a masher, said AKP Machfud, was by sending a photo of the victim via social media Whatsapp.

After haggling over the price, he said, the ZI perpetrator then contacted his friend and then a transaction took place at the designated place.

"We are still developing this case to reveal various other facts," said AKP Machfud.
