They have taken the guilty until proven innocent stance for this type of offences so it is no excuse whether it is the property agent or pimp who rents the place and then sublet it to the WLs.... the property owner will be the one taking the rap.
This is so similar to the Immigration Offences Act...  |
I don't want to doubt you but if what you say is true, then this must surely be one of the final nails in the coffins for the FLs, MLs and other working ladies who operate out of rented private apartments. Of course, if the apartment is owner occupied, then the authorities might not be able to do very much but if not, which private apartment owner is going to risk going to Court for renting out his/her flat to these WLs? Of course, the proof is in the pudding and they must have proof, which is also why it may be wise to stay out of the water for the time being - there are sharks swimming in the shallow waters.
I don't think they can do anything to the OKTs especially if the OKTs are based abroad and the website is also hosted overseas. Granted, the OKTs may have local runners to do some ground work but I doubt if the authorities are interested in the small fishes.
Just my 2 cents - cheers
