52 arrested in raid on whorehouse club
2008-03-10
ISLAMABAD: Police raided a whorehouse guesthouse-cum-club in F-10/3 Saturday night leading to the arrest of 52 people including 20 hookers women, some of them imported totty foreign nationals, and three MPs-elect.
... who were conducting a secret investigation into sin and iniquity in the city that was thrown off track by the untimely police raid, natch.
Police said there had been reports in recent days of the club being used for illegal activities, which was also creating a stench and a pestilence problems for the area residents. Being a weekend, the club, the Cat House,
Heh heh...
was at its peak activity
"Yeeeeee-haw!"
when a police team headed by Magistrate Muhammad Liaquat Abbasi and Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Farhat Abbas Kazmi conducted the raid.
"It's a raid!"
[Shriek!]
"Up against the wall, Fatty!"
"Do you know who I am?"
"Heh heh. Yeah. Heh heh."
The club owner, Zafar Iqbal Shahid, was also arrested.
"Into the paddy wagon wit' yez, Zafar! You, too, Tootsie!"
"Can I have my underwear, please? It's cold!""
He was found monitoring from his office the action going on inside the club through a closed-circuit camera.
"Yes! Yes! Lay dat pipe!"
[Knock knock!]
"Who is it?"
[CRASH!] "It's the cops! Open up!"
Judicial Magistrate Hidayatullah granted bail to all the women, including six Chinese nationals, under the Women Protection Bill.
"After interviewing the women in my chambers, I'm... uhhh... inclined to grant bail. To all of them."
"Heh heh."
"Stop snickering, Mr. Bailiff!"
MPs released: Prominent among those arrested were an MNA and two MPAs-elect. They were released shortly afterwards by Shalimar police.
"Awright, yer excellencies. Youse can go!"
"Lemme have my high hat back!"
"Naw. We're keepin' it as a souvenir!"
"And my champagne?"
"We [hic!] dishposed o' the evidence for youse!"
"And Miss Ah-toi's shoe?"
"Patrolman Mahmoud ate it."
Police said they had recovered 44 bottles of imported liquor and 88 bottles of beer besides three guns and ammunition.
'Yersh! Them high hatters got good taste in booze, you betcha!"
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Syed Kaleem Imam told Daily Times on Sunday that following complaints from residents, a notice was served on the owner asking him to shut down the club. “Since he paid no heed to the notice, considering the residents’ problems, we took action,” Imam said, adding that the six Chinese popsies women would now be deported. Earlier, the authorities had deported 13 Chinese acrobats women.

#11  A few years ago, I came up with an Internet business model for a legal celebrity brothel in Nevada.

The idea is that, as far as most celebrities are concerned, if they aren't performing, they aren't eating.

First you create a website with a huge listing of celebrities. Then, for a small subscription fee, ordinary people can set up something like a private MySpace page, including a photo and personal details. Once they do so, they submit a list of 10 celebrities and how much they would pay to have s*x with them.

Celebrities would have a rating, based on how many people want to have s*x with them. Of course, many of them wouldn't want to have s*x with a stranger, but that doesn't matter.

Then, if a celebrity subscribed to the website, they could find out who their "fans" were, and how much they were willing to pay. There would need to be extra verification to insure the celebrity is who they say they are.

And only then, if they were interested, would the website receive a payment, and deposit the fan's money in escrow, not including the non-refundable price of first class round-trip airfare to Nevada for the celebrity, and the two arrange a meeting at a prearranged private place.

At the meeting, either can still back out less the price of airfare for the celebrity. But if they agree to have s*x, then the celebrity is paid for services rendered.

The only potential problem is that the State of Nevada licenses its prostitutes, so there would need to be a tweak in the law to allow one-shot hookups. This may be unnecessary, as the two would be meeting as private individuals, with the transaction elsewhere. Thus it could be in a nice hotel instead of a brothel.

Being egomaniacs, a lot of celebrities would do anything to get to the top of the list of "most desirable", and if they wanted to pay to set up a lot of fake MySpace pages with themselves at #1, they would be free to do so.

Of course, some of the more moral ones would demand that their names be removed from the site, but no need to do so, as it really isn't about *them*, but their fans.

One of the few rules would be that individuals would be banned if they offered money and weren't willing to put it in escrow. Otherwise, it would offer two-way privacy and a great opportunity to demonstrate fan appreciation.

If a celebrity backed out and just took the money, their fans would be advised that they were a rip off, which would probably ruin their desirability rating.

#5  A "guesthouse-cum-club"?
Eww...

#4  A few pointers to the management of such a club.

Buy off the police. If they won't be bought, then surround the club with a community hostile to the police, where a call of "Hey, Rube!", or the equivalent will quickly assemble an armed mob to attack them.

If the police can be bought, then periodically arrange for them to raid the establishment and find nothing incriminating, and maybe something mildly embarrassing, like a meeting of "The elderly ladies' knitting and patriotic society".

If the police can be bought, make sure they are bought from the top down, to keep low level cops from getting greedy. Older girls should be encouraged to marry police officers, and often they make good couples.

Support for the major, non-fanatical political factions should be proportional to their representation. And the fanatical factions should be held at bay with blackmail of their leaders.

Some government bureaucrats are also good to have as patrons.

It can be complicated to be an entrepreneur.

#3  Fundamentalists' action to embarass the government? Certainly more civilized than car bombs, and possibly more effective as well.
