Two Singaporean men, aged 42 and 46, have been arrested in Thailand as part of a cross-border operation conducted by the Singapore Police Force (SPF) and the Royal Thai Police (RTP). The men are accused of operating a transnational vice syndicate that recruited foreign women and sent them to Singapore to work in the vice trade. According to the SPF, the syndicate, known as "Lover's Fortress," used websites, Telegram, LINE, and WhatsApp to recruit Thai women for prostitution in Singapore.
The syndicate's operations were uncovered through anti-vice operations in Singapore from October 2025 to September 2026, which led to the arrest of 19 vice workers. The suspects are currently being held in Thailand, and assets valued at over 350,000 baht were seized during the arrests.
