Probing corruptors

Probing corruptors

From Pos Kota

Recently, the television media have showing raids on street prostitutes who are often chased, manhandled and dragged onto trucks to be taken to the rehabilitation office.

To make matters worse, before they are turned in to the rehabilitation office, they are often sexually molested. It is regrettable that the media only show the raids on low-class prostitutes and not those against high-class prostitutes sleeping with corruptors in expensive hotels.

I am against prostitution but eliminating this practice in big cities under the current economic condition is next to impossible.

Through this letter I would like to appeal to the media to launch raids against corruptors and hoodlums who have victimized millions of people. The police should not involve themselves in chasing street prostitutes, there are lots of other jobs waiting to be done.
