Ah long pressuring female victims into prostitution

KUALA LUMPUR: Unlicensed moneylenders have come up with a new scheme for female clients to settle their debts - by pressuring them into prostitution.

In at least three cases, the 'ah long' as they are commonly known, suggested that female clients under the age of 30 turn to prostitution to settle their debts, said Kuala Lumpur Consumer Safety Association (PKP) president Samsudin Mohamad Fauzi.
