Campaigns on massage parlors
The Ministry of Interior's (MoI) residency investigations department decided intensifying inspection campaign on various spas and massage centers and forming a special committee to monitor them to prevent vice. The department's instructions pointed out that the Ministry of Health (MoH) had recently notified MoI of the detection of HIV cases, and related investigations showed that most of those infected worked in spas.
"Those arrested confessed that homosexual relations are practiced in spas for money, and this is how they got the virus," the department explained, noting that investigations also showed that customers of these spas belong to all age categories and marital statuses. "Married cases can spread this dangerous and infectious disease to their spouses and the entire society very quickly," the department warned. The department said spas have been remarkably mushrooming in various areas and have turned into brothels, especially since the majority of their staff members are "feminine-like males."
