Why do they arrest the maids/cleaners? Is cleaning after sex workers a criminal offense as well?

A friend told me he always used condoms when he first arrived here - even with his (then future) wife.
I said So did I...
Then hastily added, Not with your wife of course.

That's a high proportion of maids. I would expect that it was a very clean brothel. :?
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I see your not interested in asking why the '' motobike guard '' was arrested, but we can take a guess as to why he was.
