Saudi woman running brothel jailed
TAIF: The preliminary Court in Taif has sentenced a Saudi woman to four years in prison for running a sex racket.
A Saudi man who acted as her accomplice was imprisoned to 18 months while six young women have been given one-month custodial sentences each.
The 50-year-old madam was accused of luring the young women, aged between 18 and 25, into the brothel to have sex with customers. The Saudi man arranged transport for the women to the customers after fixing the prices. Taif police’s criminal investigation unit arrested the woman and members of her racket after receiving a tip off.
The woman amassed a huge amount of wealth through the brothel. She was clever enough to lure young beautiful women who hailed from poor families and arranged accommodation for them after offering a substantial amount of money.
She managed to attract a large number of women to her residence after turning it into a brothel, located in the Samooda region north of Taif.
Following a directive from the Makkah Governorate, the criminal investigation squad busted the prostitution racket after monitoring the area for several days.
Members of the Commission for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice (Haia) also took part in the raid.
The man, a private taxi driver, confessed to his association with the madam and to transporting young women to destinations as far as 100 km away from the area
