The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office says an investigation into what it terms "Chinese" massage parlors has led to two arrests.
"The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office began investigating a massage parlor on Highway 22 in Mandeville and another on Highway 21 in Covington after receiving complaints of illegal activities taking place at the two establishments," said Lt. Suzanne Carboni. "57-year-old Li Hong Liu (left) and 66-year-old Pengua Sun, were arrested Tuesday."
The sheriff's office says both women are Chinese nationals in the country illegally.
Both were booked on charges involving prohibited sexual conduct. Sun was also booked for resisting an officer and false imprisonment.
