36 people including Singaporean arrested in police bust of ‘sex parties’ ring
Police investigations into an illegal group that organised sex parties and partner exchanges resulted in the arrest of 36 individuals, including one Singaporean.
University students and civil servants were among the arrested, China Press reported.
The Singaporean is believed to be one of the owners of a pornographic site selling subscriptions for offline ‘sex parties’.
Police investigations reveal illegal ‘sex parties’ ring operating in Malaysia
According to China Press, police conducted operations in the Selangor region following two months of intelligence gathering, and successfully dismantled the “Pet Gang Bang” prostitution ring.
The ring had reportedly been active for nearly eight months.
Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department (Intelligence/Operations) deputy director Fadil Marsus said that the police, in collaboration with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), began their investigation in June.
They identified the ‘Swing That Fun’ website, which specialised in providing dating services, sexual services, and sharing obscene content.
Investigations revealed that those who wished to participate in offline sex parties had to pay S$121 (RM400). However, if they brought their significant other along, they would get an RM50 (S$15) discount.
Mr Fadil said that the group is believed to have started its activities early this year, organising sex parties for entertainment purposes and using the profits to operate the pornographic website.
Furthermore, the group would screen potential participants via online interviews, and they would only notify them of the location a day before the event.
This was to throw investigators off their scent.

The suspects included two Chinese men, six Chinese women, seven Malay men, seven Malay women, five Indian men, two Indian women, one French national, one Chinese national, one Nigerian, one Czechia national, and one Filipino national.

Some customers had participated in at least five swingers’ events, Fadil noted, according to The Star.
