VietNamNet Bridge - Police of the southern province of Tay Ninh and
guards at HCM City's Tan Son Nhat airport on February 9 rescued nine girls
who were about to sold to brothels in Singapore.

Police arrested three people, Tran Thi Kim Ngan, 19 from Tay Ninh, Ly
Thanh Mong, 25 from Vinh Long province and Do Van Thanh Nhut, 21 from HCM
City when they were carrying out formalities for nine girls to leave Vietnam
to Singapore at the Tan Son Nhat airport.

Two others were arrested after that, Vo Thi Hiep, 46 from An Giang
province and Tran Thi Kim Ngoc, 19 from Tay Ninh province.

According to investigators, these people went to provinces in the
Mekong River Delta to choose pretty rural girls at the age of 20-30 to sell
to brothels in Singapore.

Ngan and Nhut directly met girls to persuade them to go to Singapore
to work for an "extremely high salary". However, they were sold to brothels.

Police are expanding investigations and cooperating with Singaporean
agencies to detect and rescue other Vietnamese girls sold to Singapore by
this ring.
