Morgan Hill police arrested three women on suspicion of prostitution during a citywide undercover operation at local massage parlors, according to authorities.
According to a press release from MHPD, arrested Sept. 19 as a result of the sting were Chahua Liu, 39, at Angel Day Spa Massage on the 17600 block of Monterey Road; Yufend Tan, 50, at Spring Spa on the zero block of East Main Avenue; and Phuong Pham, 39, at Aha Spa, on the 17000 block of Condit Road.
The three suspects were cited at the scenes of their respective arrests, on suspicion of misdemeanor prostitution, according to MHPD Sgt. Carson Thomas.
“While initial arrests are just the beginning of the lengthy process to permanently combat this ongoing neighborhood nuisance, the Morgan Hill Police Department continues to respond to the community in targeting issues that can be addressed by law enforcement efforts,” reads the press release.
Thomas added, “Prostitution is not a victimless crime and (MHPD) will continue to investigate any leads in an attempt to uncover any connection between business, its owners or associates with organized crime or human trafficking.”
Anyone with information regarding this case or any other information relating to prostitution in town can contact MHPD Det. Greg Dini (669) 253-4965.
