ELEVEN Jamaican women were arrested by police in the early hours of Saturday suspected of solicitation for prostitution at a New Providence nightclub and for being in breach of the Immigration Act.
The Selective Enforcement Team, which targets people involved in criminal activities, descended on a nightclub on East Street near East West Highway around 2am and found the 11 women from Jamaica, who they suspected to be at that location for the purpose of solicitation for prostitution.
The women were taken into custody for breach of the Immigration Act. Police also arrested two of the club’s managers for breach of the Business License Act.
The police operation team also arrested 11 other people on Friday night/early Saturday morning for various offences including possession of dangerous drugs, armed robbery, firearm possession and stealing.
