What the release reports
Jaiho Club manager Alagar Balasubramanian received forty-one months’ imprisonment, a S$27,365 fine and S$2,722 compensation order over trafficking involving three performers.
Details and conditions
Workers faced unexplained contracts, oppressive financial demands, no wages, seized documents or phones, threats and assaults. These facts go beyond an ordinary employment dispute.
Context and follow-up
MOM arranged counselling, welfare visits and temporary employment; the women returned safely to India. Suspected trafficking can be confidentially reported. The release distinguishes the February conviction from the April sentencing date.
