Two women and a man allegedly involved in immoral activities were detained by the Royal Brunei Police Force (RBPF) on Monday afternoon.
Personnel from the Anti-Vice and Gambling Suppression Unit of the Criminal Investigation Department raided two separate rented rooms in Kampong Beribi around 2.42pm and 2.45pm, where they found the suspects involved in sexual activities.
The female suspects, a 37-year-old local and a 47-year-old foreigner, are believed to have been offering sexual services to a 47-year-old male foreigner.
During the raid, several evidence were discovered in the rooms including a mobile phone, condoms and cash, believed to be used for the illicit activities.
The suspects were brought to undergo the COVID-19 swab tests. They will be investigated under Section 294A (the offence of offering sexual services) and Section 294B (the offence of paying for sexual service) Chapter 22 of the Penal Code.
The public is reminded that offering sexual services is an offence in the country. Those with information of such activity can report to the RBPF by calling 993 or by visiting the nearest police station.
