“The hotel has been on our watch list because people living in that area brought complaints on how teenagers are being used for forced prostitution.

“We investigated and decided to strike and we chose a time that we will meet the suspects and victims right there at the hotel,” he said.

The official disclosed that three suspects, who were mainly women and the manager of the hotel, were arrested while 12 girls were rescued.
