Child-welfare police arrested a woman who allegedly forced her underage daughter and niece to sell sex to foreigners.
Officials from the regional Department of Special Investigations office, Children & Women’s Protection Center, and Srakaew police announced Nov. 1 the arrest of Mali Donrum, 34, of Buriram.
Police said Mali confessed to working as a prostitute in Pattaya and pushed her daughter and niece, both 17, to sell themselves to foreigners five times during the school holidays for 2,000-3,000 baht each.
Police said they learned of her pandering and used an undercover foreign informant to assist them in a sting operation. She was arrested when she brought the girls to the supposed customer.
