Outlet raided one month after opening

Reading this report, Outlet raided one month after opening. I am reminded of a much earlier report that your paper made on a similar 'story', 61 GRO's held in 11th raid at outlet {Star Sunday Nov 15, 2009}, and two questions immediately come to my mind.
  1. Is the outlet that has been raided 11 times still in operations?
  2. Has the new outlet that has been raided just one month after opening any relation to the "11-raids outlet"?
Other serendipitous happenings can be surmised from this report too. It seems George Town is 'happily' notorious in such activities, and no amount of enforcement and raids will stem the vice business. This also throws in the question, "are the operators of this type of business in cahoots with the local authorities and the Police, as seen by the fact that there seems no fear of being harassed and caught?"

Finally, the all important question. "Are the operators of this type of business also involved indirectly in 'human trafficking'?

The Government may want to think these questions through, and provide the public with some good answers
