Garut Resort Police is investigating a house rental case used for prostitution in the village of Cikajang District, Garut Regency, West Java, to find out whether there is an element of a criminal act.
"The case is still being investigated, we have examined the owner of the house, as well as the person in the house," said Cikajang Police Chief AKP Adnan as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, August 8.
He said the houses of residents located in the residents' villages, precisely Kampung Padasono, Padasuka Village, Cikajang District, have often been rented out to the public.
However, reports from the public, he said, were often misused by people who hired him to commit immoral acts or not a muhrim partner.
Based on the community's report, said Adnan, his staff immediately checked the house on Saturday (5/8) night and it turned out that it was true that there were three men and four women who were in different rooms.
"We carried out raids related to reports of alleged prostitution which at the time of the incident we found three men and four women in different rooms," he said.
The police then secured them to the Cikajang Police to undergo further legal examination, especially checking whether or not there was a practice of trafficking in persons.

"So the male confession, the woman can be through the application, then taken to the house, if it is proven that there is a pimp, we will process the law, this is what is being investigated," he said.
