CAMP MACABULOS, Tarlac — Agents of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Team (CIDT) rescued four minors and rounded-up 12 guest relation officers from a prostitution den in Bgy. San Isidro, Tarlac City yesterday.

Supt. Nestor C. Babagay, CIDT Tarlac chief, said the owner, identified as Vridge Espinosa of Bgy. San Isidro was charged with Child Prostitution and Child Abuse cases with a recommended bail of P180,000.

The women were charged with violation of Presidential Decree 969 that prohibits obscene exhibition and indecent shows. A 17-year-old girl, a resident of Forbes Park, Manila was caught having sexual intercourse with a CIDT poseur customer during the operation.

In a report to CIDG regional officer Senior Supt. Guillermo Eleazar, Supt. Babagay said at 10:30 p.m. his men raided the massage clinic after one of his men entered the establishment by posing as customer.

The CIDG operatives found the 18 women, who were working at the clinic failed to present their health and sanitation permits from the City Health Office which endangers the health of the customers.

The four minors were turned-over to the City Social Welfare Department, all aged 17. –George Hubierna, People’s Tonight
