24 foreign GROs held in raid

GEORGE TOWN: Police have rounded up 24 foreign women, believed to be working illegally as guest relations officers, and a male caretaker at an entertainment outlet in Gurney Drive here.

The 23 Chinese nationals and a Vietnamese were picked up by two teams from the state and George Town anti-vice, gambling and secret societies at about 11pm on Thursday following a tip-off.

George Town OCPD Asst Comm Gan Kong Meng said the women, in their 20s, were arrested under Section 29 (B) of the Immigration Act for abusing their social visit passes.

The women had entered the country as tourists without valid working permits.
