6 Woman Arrested!
6 woman were arrested on August 27th. The police raided a massage parlor the girls worked at. Although only catching one in the act of prostitution everyone one still had to go with the police, except the men. The girls called Wilda / P3M immediately for help. They have been trying to do everything in their power to help these woman.
The police wanted 20 million rp. for their release but they were able to talk them down to 15 million rp. ($1,500). The girls had to borrow from one of the mangers of the massage parlor. But they are now stuck in more debt then before, guess how they will have to pay it off? Can't we see this cycle these woman keep trapped in and have no other choice but stay in prostitution.
Reason for the raid was also not out of concern for the woman or the law but for money instead. The owners of the massage parlor don't pay the monthly "tax" to the police to turn a blind eye so instead the police raid every 6 months. Getting their money either way, the woman paying the most in the end. Though the woman have practiced prostitution they were illegally arrested according to Indonesian law and P3M is trying to help them fight it. They need our support, understanding and prayers.
Needs: If anyone is touched by their story and wants to donate money to help them pay off their debt so they don't have to do it another way. Also anyone that knows the Indonesian law very well or knows of or is a lawyer would be great help.
Thanks to all who have been supporting P3M, ever bit counts!
Love yall and Way to go P3M TEAM!!!!! Support them!!!
