due to their skin color age and fat.
sri Lanakan woman work as free lance sex workers in Singapore, they don't have license. if police arrives they have to run away, so sri lankan pimps gives the tips etc,
how ever, the pimps are sri lanka colombo born ager 30-35 years. they don't have a clue of Singapore police.
how ever, the sri lankans girls were told that pimps pay money to police and have big contacts like in sri lanka.
normally the poor girls got cheated in that way, once the police arrives, pimps are the one runs away first, also pimps makes the forge visa stamps for the girls.
pimps uses to get a commission of $5 or more for their service to them. normally Colombo born unemployed man 30-35years works as pimps in Singapore. from the hair cut it shows where they from.
after a mon or so, the girls will return to sti lanka back as tourists. with lots of electronic goods etc, and they come back again and make the air ticket money and some for their expenses, and good life in Singapore.
This case is very bad, may be due to the bad attitudes of sri lankan girls, not knowing about the sex trade, could be a forigner want to have sex with sri lankan girl, due to her attitude, he would have killed her.
normally contraction workers from India are very rude. sri lankans and they cant get along in most of the cases. since sri lankan girls sold for cheap, they approach them.
however, its a sad story to have a sri lankan girls body under a red light district in Singapore known as Geylang.

How true the above comment made on the operation of the syndicate remains to be confirmed. Hence, we hope the Singapore authorities will look into this potential
problem that may threaten the security of Singapore.
